Second hand in very good condition
Plush were an occasionally morphing duo to quartet outfit centred around singer-songwriter Rory Eliots (the sole common component of all the bands incarnations) acoustic guitar-led pop and rock. That they lasted 14 years has much to do with the consistency of their output, but can also be ascribed to the energy and general cheerfulness woven into the music and the way its performed. Arrangements are tight without being especially sophisticated or huge, extending the everyman appeal of the band, who were far closer in character to those standing in front of the stage at their shows than to the detached star personae many musicians strive for. Plush released four albums between 2004 and 2011, and the bulk of the material here has aged well, particularly Tainted, When Grace Grew Tall and Halo (a live version in included here). Eliots charisma remains evident in both studio and live recordings and across a range of themes (including Rage On, written after the death of friend and bandmate Chas Smit in 2005), and it may be that, with this collection drawing a close to the Plush era.
