Three years after introducing us to them on Ladies And Gentlemen…The Crowband, The Crowman has returned on record with Blackwell, another selection of his self-styled ‘garage-folk’, now fully under the banner of The Crowband. After an exclamation over the price of the CD, we are introduced to the band and ushered into their world with the surreal and eccentric Uncle Mark’s A Weirdo (in reference, I’m guessing to The Crowman himself, Mark Le Gallez) complete...
