“Would You Believe” is stunning late ’60’s pop crafted with knowing nods of love to Brian Wilson’s Pet Sounds, that thankfully NEVER forgets the importance of the... (cough) London Social Degree. However, if drug references are Billy’s point, they’re overwhelmed soniclly as “Would You...” is packed full of LUSH, dense arrangements awash with a “sound” that serves to unify the LP as a whole... it’s absolutely gorgeous. In fact... I own two copies (I wish!). Anyways, turns out, thirty years ago, this LP was shelved without any believable reason, the Loog, the fella responsible for the shelving, oughta be ashamed. –Nipper
