Dave,

Steve Bush started on the local Bristol Music scene around the same time as
the Art Objects (Gerards first band) and is an old friend of Gerard & Ann.
This would be around 1978/79.  He had a group called Essential Bop.  Has
lived in London and now Bristol.  He has been recording for the last year 
or
so and this sounds like the results.

Regards

Simon Williams

> 'Nice tunes, weird words, big beats,' aptly describe this eclectic set of
songs from Bristol's Steve Bush. Blossom Freak is the kind of album that
places a comforting arm around your shoulder one minute only to leave you
floundering the next. Once you've succumbed to the various (wicked) 
delights
on offer here - the twisted, dark tales of vile mouth's,
split-personalities, and lascivious desires - you won't be able to leave
this album alone. A truly weird cocktail of Daft Punk; Bill Pritchard;
fragments of Beck skipping through the backdoor; and a dash of Gerard
Langley's poetic tongue make Blossom Freak more than a compelling
experience. There remains a tender heart, though, once the listener delves
beneath the dark covers - the sincerity of Weaker Than You and closing 
title
track are enough to redeem Steve Bush if ever he's faced with the option of
heaven or hell. Somehow, I think he would choose the latter option! Bad 
mood
music is a fitting description, but like all things!
