Dury’s third LP, after a six-year gap, perfectly balances the dark with the light.
There’s a reason why clichés are clichés – because so often they’re true. And Baxter Dury – son of the late Blockhead Ian – is a living personification of that famous old adage: like father, like son. Happy Soup is the 39-year-old’s third album, coming almost six years after his last full-length effort, and it’s infused with the legacy of his renowned father. That said, these 10 tracks don’t try to replicate the latter’s iconoclastic, idiosyncratic style. Rather, the tenderness and tightness of that inherent paternal bond shines through these laid-back, lethargic songs.
