...them smiling. Stick a camera in any child's face, and that's what he'll do: perform, to please the gawking outsider. After a while this approach looks like exploitation. It's sad to say, but one of the world's great directors has produced a minimalist minstrel show...

...from the UK who have worked as session musicians for the Spice Girls. It’s hard to describe the nine tracks of this garishly colored, surreal album, which is a compilation of the previous three Lemon Jelly EPs: The Bath, Yellow and Midnight.
