Attention, musical archaeologists and alt-pop Indiana Joneses! TLAK Goes DIY proudly presents the sonic equivalent of finding King Tut's tomb in your gran's attic.
"Songs For Cilla To Sing" isn't just an album; it's a time capsule wrapped in mystery, drizzled with what-ifs, and served on a bed of pure DIY gumption. Brian Bordello, the cult-hero of British songwriting (and The Bordellos' resident wizard), crafted these tunes for none other than Cilla Black herself. It's like he was playing musical Cupid, but Cupid got lost in the mail for a few decades.
This isn't just a collection of demos; it's a peek into an alternate universe where Cilla Black became the queen of underground cool. Alas, by the time these sonic love letters reached her, Cilla had hung up her microphone. But fear not! Some of these tunes found homes with other groups, like musical orphans adopted by loving bands.
Now, thanks to TLAK's DIY series, you too can experience what might have been. It's like listening to the butterfly effect, if the butterfly wrote catchy tunes and had a thing for Liverpudlian divas.
