“The Jazz Butcher seemingly existed to throw curveballs” Bandcamp “A masterpiece of pure pop” Exclaim “A truly and modestly brilliant lyricist” Popmatters // Available for the first time on vinyl since 1986, The Jazz Butcher’s ‘Distressed Gentlefolk’ remains a fan favourite over three decades on. ‘Distressed Gentlefolk’ (1986) was released on Glass Records ahead of the original band’s demise through “fatigue and liquor”. “A beautifully romantic record of soft rock ballads and jazzy torch songs,” enthused Trouser Press. There’s a folky edge scratching away beside the inevitable romp through pop music’s historical lineage. Now a fully-fledged band “Gentlefolk completes his transformation into a fully-formed songwriter” (Pitchfork) and features some of their finest material in ‘Still In The Kitchen’, ‘Angels’ and ‘Who Loves You Now?’.
