Album Review: Manchester Calling by Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott

Very Good, Based on 1 Critic

AllMusic - 70
Based on rating 7/10

After hitting the U.K. Top Five with all three of their prior duo albums, the Beautiful South's Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott return with a generous 16-track set. A tip of the hat to the Clash's double album London Calling, Manchester Calling verifies that Heaton can indeed churn out enough bouncy earworms and playfully acerbic verses to fill the more ambitious length, though it's likely thanks, at least in part, to the three-year gap between records, their longest yet.
