JC Carroll - West Byfleet Selfie Collectors Vinyl
Review by Jim Gwynn
JC Carroll's latest album, West Byfleet Selfie Collectors Vinyl, is a magnificent addition to his already impressive discography. The album is a perfect blend of indie rock, punk and folk, and showcases Carroll's versatility as a musician.
From the opening track, "West Byfleet Selfie Collectors," Carroll sets the tone for the album with his gritty vocals and catchy guitar riffs. His songwriting is also on full display throughout the album, with tracks like "Dancing with the Dead" and "The Last Time I Saw You" showcasing his ability to write poignant and introspective lyrics.
The production on the album is also top-notch, with a raw and organic feel that perfectly complements Carroll's sound. The vinyl release of the album adds an extra layer of depth to the listening experience, with the warmth and richness of the vinyl sound bringing the songs to life in a way that digital just can't match.

Notes
- Recorded mostly in his studio in West Byfleet this is his third Studio Solo Album and sees him in reflective mood, painting with his Film composer tools rather then the Post Punk colouring book we see in his live shows. The Songs are all written by Carroll with the exception of three exceptional covers.
- 1. His acclaimed Cover of David Bowie's Where are they now
- 2. A Riotous Punk Rock version of Piaf's Non je Ne Regrette Rien
- 3. A RE-Working of Francis Lai's Theme from Love Story.
- Other Songs are a Stadium Rock anthem about Radio Play called In the Beginning, a Reggaeton Jam about Salvador Dali's favourite Catalan Fishing Village, Cadaquez, The Rain in California, a Post Brexit story of emigration and diaspora, Trans Siberian Railway a Folky Techno mash up about fleeing the bolshevik revolution 100 years ago. This album shows Carroll as a mature songwriter unafraid of interesting subject matter deeply influenced by Punk Folk and Chanson, a man with stories to tell and the tools to tell them in a stunningly different tableaux.
