Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

World Party – Goodbye Jumbo

I love the songs on it and I love Karl Wallinger’s singing. I fell in love with it cause he sorta took all the influences that he loves from the sixties and seventies – I guess from The Beatles, The Stones, Bob Dylan – and somehow he made it into his own style. I don’t think anybody really heard this album in the States, I don’t think it had any commercial success at all. It’s a great record. It’s a record I played to death and it still sounds as good now as when it came out.

Selected in other Baker’s Dozens: Lord Spikeheart, Tom Ravenscroft
