Luke Haines is the last of the great English songwriters. In 1993 with The Auteurs, he released with New Wave the definitive album of the noughties  era—more British than Britpop, which he would rightly criticize. Luke Haines, with his first band, then with Black Box Recorder, Baader Meinhoff with Peter Buck, and later as a solo artist, has created a unique body of work. A scholar by training, he has written articles for Record Collector and books that don't hesitate to debunk certain sacred cows and unearth forgotten gems. French readers are therefore invited to purchase his book, Freaks Qui Peut, from the publisher Le Boulon. Izzy wizzy let's get bizzy (on Cherry Red), Luke Haines' new album, never lacking in original concepts, revisits the seventies, an era when children's programming flirted dangerously with the occult and the demonic. Fascinating and revealing, isn't it?odcast ever ! Look No further !
