• Lyhyt kuvaus I’m sixty-one years old now, Lord I never thought I’d see 30,” Nick Lowe sings on ‘Checkout Time,’ a song from his first new studio album in over four years, ‘The Old Magic,’ set for release on the 12th September on Proper Records. For though he spent his 20s “busy not fitting into three successive movements: pub rock, punk and new wave”, Lowe has mined fertile new creative ground in recent years and the eleven tracks on ‘The Old Magic’ dig deeper still. Amidst urbanely insistent grooves (“Sensitive Man”), and spare-yet-imposing shuffles (the aforementioned “Checkout Time”), ‘The Old Magic’ features three exceptional, recently road-tested Lowe ballads – album opener ‘Stoplight Roses,’ ‘House for Sale’ (which you can hear below) and ‘I Read A Lot’ (which you can listen to here). Then there’s ‘Restless Feeling,’ a shimmering dance tune worthy of the roller rink that Lowe wrote for a fictional band he calls Coastline. As is his custom, Lowe also peppers ‘The Old Magic’ with three covers – by Elvis Costello, Tom T. Hall and Jeff West – that fit seamlessly with his originals.
