Album DescriptionThere's a bit of a buzz around Hampshire band The Delays & one listen to their third single 'Long Time Coming' reveals why. A mixture of sunny melodies & swooning strings, their latest single is a remarkable effort from such a new band. The four-piece produced a startling debut with 'Nearer Than Heaven' & have since gone from strength to strength. Second single 'Hey Girl' was awarded Record of the Week on Mark & Lard's Radio 1 show & has received plaudits throughout the music press. 'Long Time Coming' is another classic slice of retro pop & should see the band propelled into the upper reaches of the chart. The band has toured with Tim Burgess, the Thrills & the Coral & will release their debut album in 2004. The title track is backed with 'Chicago'. Includes free double sided poster. Paper sleeve. Rough Trade. 2004.
