PLENTY RAID ARCHIVES FOR MORE THAN ENOUGH
Tim Bowness’ 80s trio return with double-length release.
Enough is the new double album from Plenty, the art rock trio that prog star Tim Bowness fronted in the 1980s. The three members – Bowness, guitaristkeyboardist Brian Hulse and bassist David K Jones – reunited for 2018 release It Could Be Home, and during last year’s lockdown they remotely worked on updated versions of seven songs from their back catalogue. “I’d always felt that the Plenty material was among my best,” Bowness says. “Redoing these pieces was a means of kickstarting the creative process for my next solo album. But after a while we realised this was quite a substantial album in its own right.”
Also included are seven recordings from the band’s archives plus five newly minted cover versions, including It’s Immaterial’s New Brighton, Tiny Children by The Teardrop Explodes, and Hank Williams I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry.
Enough is out now via Burning Shed. For more details on the band and album visit www.timbowness.co.uk.
