    "Era-Defining" is one word (well, two words) to describe the album featuring on today's XS Long Player Podcast as Jim goes back to 1992 to talk about Stereo MC's iconic thrid album 'Connected'.

    James 'Laid' with Saul Davies (plus bonus 'Yummy' interview).

    We’ve been waiting to do this one for a while! On this episode of the XS Long Player we go back to 1993 and talk to seminal Manchester band James about their classic album ‘Laid’. Taking a rare (for the band) moment to look at the back catalogue is Saul Davies (violin, guitar in the album) who talks to Jim Salveson about working with Brian Eno, why the album was so different to the one that proceeded it and how their most popular song, and the title track of the album, almost never made the cut. Plus, as a bonus, Saul also answers some questions about the bands brand new album ‘Yummy’ as submitted by XS Manchester listeners. Listen to the classic album ‘Laid’ here: https://open.spotify.com/album/5pALyxshOPc8LLKggzNvQe?si=_gnEbJJmQOGRd9k1pQaotg And check out the STUNNING new album ‘Yummy’ here: https://open.spotify.com/album/1r2lI54enVHBTHDdFS2DUY?si=qAF0D9qQSjyPLP-SliUdaQ If you love indie/rock music then you can listen to XS Manchester live via: www.xsmanchester.co.uk or via the XS Manchester App (available in Apple and Google Play stores) plus you can follow Jim on X via @Mr_Jimbob Learn more about your ad choices.
