Cornershop "Hold on It's Easy" (2015)

Hold on It's Easy

release date: Feb. 2, 2015
format: digital
[album rate: 3,5 / 5] [3,33]
producer: Tjinder Singh
label: Ample Play Records - nationality: England, UK

8th studio album by Cornershop follows nearly three years after Urban Turban - The Singhles Club.
This is something entirely different by being an easy-listening remake [thus the title] of the band's debut album Hold on It Hurts from 1993 and seems to be made exclusively by Tjinder Singh with the assistance of additional musicians and completely without steady band member Ben Ayres.
The album has only been issued in vinyl and digital download formats.
Hold on It's Easy is interesting with its alternate versions of familiar songs but it's nevertheless a somewhat strange and less powerful collection of songs, and the album may serve more in a collection for completionists.
