I had never heard this before, despite being a long-term Scritti fan... I should have known - IT IS ALL GOOD. If it's Green, it's gotta be good.

The album was released first in Japan. I don't know if "Umm" was ever released there commercially as a single, but I have seen a Japanese promo CD for it on eBay.

I remember meeting Green at his concert back in 2006 and I came to find out that he LOVES Hip-Hop!

In the late 80s Green warned us about the influx of American check shirted Neil Youngesque guitar rockers that were to dominate music for years and years later swamping any possibility of true pop sensibility such as is demonstrated here

classic scritti

@sergeastorms67 You mean: It's a brilliant mix of hip hop, pop, sha-la-la doo-wop vocals, hard-rock crunch guitar, acid-jazz interludes, and the kitchen sink! I can't think of a more generous song since the Beach Boys' peak 33 years earlier.

@ChazOMac i heard Green being interviewed on a radio show a few weeks ago and he said he's gotten over his stage fright and now quite looks forward to playing live, i just hope he decides to tour to promote the best of album

Agreed with all who lament the fact that this album was sorely underappreciated... bought it the day it came out when I was living in Berlin and to this day can always put it on and love it from start to finish... thanks Green!

Album was ahead of its time. It's brilliant of course, it's Green - and nobody can write a hooky chorus like Green! However it fell through the cracks - too hip-hop for pop, and too pop for hip-hop. David Gamson's solo stuff ran into the same wall with R&B - ( though his work with Meshell Ndegeocello proved he was the real deal ). Shame Green doesn't like touring, because that's what kept Miles Davis going, and he was always trying to do the same thing - move his music forward.

Great opener to a fantastic (and still, I fear, sorely overlooked) album - in fact I would go so far as to say that 'Anomie &* Bonhomie' is Scritti's best album.

Perfect pop.

I love this song.... it's got quite a hook. I also like 'Here Come July'... for some reason it cracked me up totally when Green cussed in that song lol!
