Not long returned from a short break on the Gower in South Wales. If that isn't Wales' best kept secret I don't know what is? Three Cliffs Bay is all you could want in a small piece of coastline/ wonderful beaches, prehistoric remains, a ruined castle and a green river valley, all in a coupla square miles, and no 'facilities', it truly feels unspoiled.

Two Lone Swordsmen - From The Double Gone Chapel/ Wrong Meeting 1+2
Double Gone Chapel is deffo a great unsung pop recording.

On the whole VS is a decent collaboration record, has that trademark heavy Mark Stewart drum sound throughout, though could have done without the awful rendition of Grant Hart' All Of My Senses....it really is terrible.
