Metro or nicer or premier or local, it's simply expressed daily On the end of our street there stood a friendly corner-shop But now they have had to leave because they've had their rent put up Raj has gone. His family lived their whole lives in this neighbourhood And just like lots of others, in this way they've lost their livelihood Now another mini supermarket has taken its place Slowly does the soul of the area become erased Slowly does the soul become erased Metro or nicer or premier or local, it's simply expressed daily Another line of shops is gone, each and every one, unique Instead, we get the usual cafes and familiar boutiques Billy's left, his place has been bought out by a famous pizza chain Traditional pubs are being replaced and now only a few remain Now every city in our land begins to look like every other Money has a tendency to subjugate, suppress and smother Slowly does the soul become erased Metro or nicer or premier or local, it's simply expressed daily

about

Hello,
Here, for your delectation is, at last, the debut album by Zest Hope Successes - (that's little ol' me).
This album has taken eleven years to produce. That means thousands and thousands and thousands of hours of work....
For one reason or the other, i never seem to take the easy route!

Everything you hear has been played/programmed/arranged/written/produced by me, (jeez, wot a bighead), apart from the deliciously wonderful violins in "Spontaneous Combustion, Yeah" which were played by the amazing Pauline Reap.

I hope that you enjoy the album.
It may be a bit on the long side, but hey, just pick a song or two for now and dive in... There's a real variety of music on this album, so if one tune don't float yer boat, then another one surely will.

><><><

ps - Lonely Yak is a Bonus Track that can only be found on the Bandcamp version of Practically Gale Force.
