Teenage Fanclub’s Norman Blake and Half Japanese’s Jad Fair have teamed up to bring you their new magnum opus, 2. Two Hearts Together “Yes”. Encompassing all the songwriting eccentricities that have made 3. Your Smile these guys famous, this new collaborative album also features some of 4. Yes the most genteel, engagingly catchy, and downright adorable music in recent memory. 5. Now Is The Time 6. Thank You Norman Blake and Jad Fair originally collaborated over a decade ago on 7. Add Your Name the Teenage Fanclub and Jad Fair album “Words of Wisdom and Hope” (Domino/Alternative Tentacles). Unlike the simple, aggressive style of 8. This Is It Half Japanese, the 13 new tracks on “Yes” feature refined, 9. The Real Deal guitar-laden power-pop and saccharin-sweet melodies, accompanied by backup singers and layered horn arrangements. Fair’s 10. Our Motto characteristically-manic vocal style is still present, but when 11. Have You Heard The News coupled with the head-bopping, articulately-layered arrangements of 12. You Are The One Norman Blake, the result is a potently earnest album that is brimming with positivity.
