Band: Primal Scream
Album: Riot City Blues
Released: 5 June 2006 – 15 years a go today
the band’s eight LP.

AllMusic/Thom Jurek: “Riot City Blues is another attempt at straight-up
trad rock where the ghosts of the Faces, the Rolling Stones, and others come
traipsing into Bobby Gillespie’s scope and he goes for it… Listen with an open
mind, it’s a refreshingly retro rock & roll album that uses its imagination in
capturing every fantasy that entered Bobby Gillespie’s teenage mind.”
Score: 3.5/5.

Turn Up The Volume: Good old dirty street blues-rock and one of the most
affecting and melancholic ballads I ever heard with ‘Sometimes I Feel Lonely‘.

Singles: Country Girl / Dolls / Sometimes I Feel So Lonely…

– COUNTRY GIRL –

– DOLLS –

– SOMETIMES I FEEL SO LONELY –
(Here’s that heartbreaking tearjerker)
