Trixies

About This Product

Trixies could have been Squeeze’s first album. Written by Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook when they were just 19 and 16 respectively, Trixies is a concept album born of imagination and nostalgia. Inspired by a fictional members' club dreamt up in the early 1970s and imagined as existing in the future (the 1980s), the album channels a world reminiscent of a 1920s or 30s speakeasy – glamorous, smoky, and populated by colourful characters.Although the album was demo-ed at the time it was never released, and only revisited decades later. Now, the record is fully realised with today’s musicianship and production, combining teenage brilliance with seasoned artistry.

Customer Reviews Summary

This album was originally penned in 1974 and was earmarked as the debut from Squeeze.Although it lacks the famous hit singles from subsequent years the overall quality of the material is of a high standard.I have purchased most of the albums by Squeeze over the years, but this is the strongest one that they've released.It does take a couple of plays before the beauty of the songs are fully revealed.The theme of Trixies night club runs through the songs on this record and it really works as a concept album.It will definitely be a contender for the album of the year, in my humble opinion.
