Synopsis

Album Description
2007 reissue of the '97 release from Stackridge featuring four bonus tracks: 'Sliding Down A Razorblade' (Alternate Version), 'Ropes Of Pearls', 'Sad Romantic' and 'No Love in Her Heart'. The history books suggest that West Country wonders Stackridge ceased operations after a gig at Yeovil Town Hall in 1976 but Something For The Weekend offers irrefutable evidence that this isn't the case - not by a long chalk. Recorded in 1997 and produced by their long term collaborator David Lord, this album received rave reviews in the UK music press with MOJO dubbing the song 'Something About The Beatles' as 'the MOJO readers anthem'. and Q commented on some 'surprisingly potent pop'. Angel Air.

"No review yet? Okay, well then, just on first listen (last night) I'll say it's below the first 4-5 albums in all the things that made Stackridge music interesting and enjoyable, but still these three members know how to resurrect a sound. The first track is one of the best ever S. tunes."
Stackridge - where are they now?

"Hi fans of Stackridge,My connection to Stackridge started with my old friend, Bill Blake who was Stackridge manager and drummer Billy Sparkle (amongst other names).When Stackridge broke up, Bill worked for a while as personal assistant to the record producer Sir George Martin and later established his own TV company, Billboard TV. Billboard has since gone but Bill still lives in Swindon and continues in ther entertainment business.Bill is a very old friend and one of the nicest guys you could meet. On behalf of Bill, thank you for visiting the Stackridge site and enjoy their brilliant music.Ian Robertson"
