	Squeeze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Squeeze was a British rock music band that came to prominence in the New Wave period of the late 1970s.
		Their debut album was produced by John Cale for AandM Records.
		This is not officially considered a Squeeze album, but over the years Difford and Tilbrook would become the only constant members of the band.

		Inspired heavily by the Beatles and the Kinks, Squeeze was the vehicle for the songwriting of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook, who were hailed as the heirs to Lennon and McCartney's throne during their heyday in the early '80s.
		Squeeze never came close to matching the popularity of the Beatles, but the reason for that is part of their charm.
		Squeeze began playing the thriving pub rock circuit, although their songs were quirkier and more pop-oriented than many of their peers.

	Squeeze Reviews
		Squeeze obtained their second American hit with the neo-funky horn-bouncy throwaway "Hourglass", which sadly is the catchiest thing on here.
		Squeeze display their unflaggable sense of craft and melody throughout this album, and the lyrics are typically incisive.
		Squeeze make their contribution to the rock'n'roll telephone number tradition, "853-5937" for no apparent purpose except, well, to make their contribution to the rock'n'roll tradition of telephone songs.

	TrouserPress.com :: Squeeze
		As Squeeze concentrated on making albums rather than singles after Cool for Cats, Singles — 45's and Under, a compilation released soon after the announcement of the band's dissolution, was an oddly chosen eulogy.
		As it was their decision to disband Squeeze and continue writing and performing together, Difford and Tilbrook surprised no one by releasing an album that, except for being funkier and even more boring, basically sounds no different from the band's lesser efforts.
		The simple good-love-gone-bad concept album (the booklet is a script that incorporates song lyrics) attempts a breakup in the similarly intimate "Letting Go," but can't come to the point.

	Squeeze
		An interesting sidelight to the Squeeze story is the solo career of fleet-fingered pianist Jools Holland, who cut several eclectic solo albums during the 80s and 90s.
		I have everything Squeeze ever released on CD other than a live album and a couple of greatest hits packages, but I'm planning to review them slowly, so don't be too taken aback by the glib one-liners I offer in several places.
		With remarkable serendipity, Squeeze got off to a start with a disco novelty song that turned into a moderate hit single: "Take Me I'm Yours," which is driven by a really annoying, robotic synth line that would have been worthy of the Cars.

	Ridiculous - Reviews
		Although there have been, let's be honest, some lacklustre releases in recent years, the Squeeze sound has remained constant and reassuring, inspiring further loyalty among the fans who pray for a glimmer of the genius that ignited Cool For Cats, Argybargy, and East Side Story some 15 years ago.
		Squeeze's millionth LP has a lyrical verve and a slight musical swagger you'd think was now beyond them.
		At the height of their popularity in the early '80s, Squeeze aspired to being, and were heralded as, the Lennon/McCartney of their generation.

	bobchaos.com: Velvet Underground Squeeze
		This band was popular in their native Boston and although they sadly didn't record, is important to the Velvets story as three members of this band went on to serve in the Velvet Underground.
		But for the last studio album with Reed, August 1970's "Loaded", it's Yule who provides the lead vocals for three of this album's four best songs, and the album is brilliant.
		Although technically A VU album (thus it's inclusion in the VU discography), "Squeeze" is more correctly Doug Yule's first solo album, albeit one that maintains the VU's spirit and high quality.

	The Who by Numbers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		This album is one of those albums to which you have to give a second listen for the entire thing to really sink in.
		"Squeeze Box" is a moronic sexual pun that Townshend should never have sunk to (at least he didn't waste a good melody on it), and most of the others sound more like rejects from one of his solo albums than Who songs.
		The reason this album (originally released in 1975, the version discussed here is the 1996 remaster) wasn't doing well was of course the growing punk-movement (with the Who being their main victims...).

	NO News is Good News
		Ridiculous is a nice Squeeze album and I think I prefer it over the previous few albums after Frank.
		This album actually was a compilation album, but I didn't know it at the time I bought it.
		I had the albums Drastic Plastic and Modern Music on tape, but when those tapes stopped playing adequately, the CDs of those albums were not readily obtainable in the US.

	Squeeze
		Along the way the story uncovers the truth behind the brilliant but often fractious Tilbrook/Difford partnership, the formation of the band and subsequent line-up changes, gruelling tours, towering successes and disappointing failures and the inevitable rock ‘n’ roll excesses that are part and parcel of being in a famous group.
		It is written in the narrative when dealing with the overall history of Squeeze, reverting to dialogue format for the detailed track-by-track analysis.
		This being Squeeze, the likes of Gilson Lavis, Paul Carrack and of course the irrepressible Jools Holland also play significant parts in the band's musical development and all have their personal issues along the way.

	GLENN TILBROOK: The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook (Quixotic) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		Squeeze fans will be right at home with Tilbrook's first solo effort, The Incomplete Glenn Tilbrook.
		After all, the collection sounds a lot like a Squeeze album since Tilbrook's vocals were the heart and soul of the successful group.
		The majority of the album is virtually interchangeable with his enviable Squeeze collection.

	Fiona : Squeeze - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Released in 1992, Squeeze came at a time when the rock world was experiencing a major upheaval.
		Squeeze, which was Flanagan's first album for Geffen and fourth overall, found the New Jersey native fronting a real band instead of simply using a bunch of studio players (a move that Kalodner had recommended).
		Squeeze is never mind-blowing, although it's a pleasant, likable effort that is worth hearing if you're a diehard fan of �80s-style arena rock.

	The Career of Glenn Tilbrook
		Squeeze were not about to rest on their laurels though, and prepared for an onslaught of the top ten.
		For their next album the band decided to remedy this situation and so as much as possible of it was recorded live and the whole thing was written with a view to what could be played live on tour.
		Yet even though the album was written with a view to simplicity, the styles within the album remain varied, although they are more varied within a genre rather than varying between genres.

	One Last Squeeze
		When the tentative theory that Squeeze’s line-up is forever fluctuating is suggested to Tilbrook, he admits that, “yes, I think all our keyboard players we’ve had in at least twice!” But, he adds, “I’m really proud of this line-up; I really like (it).
		The thing about Squeeze that I like, which may work both for and against us, is that there’s a definite line through all of our records.
		With the exception of the very first album, there are some songs from all of our albums that could quite happily fit on all the other albums.

	Metroactive Music \| Squeeze
		In their bottom-lined wisdom, the suits who control things decided that the punters from London were out of time and out of pace with the new breed.
		In an interview with a trade paper, Squeeze co-chief Chris Difford managed to keep a stiff upper lip about the situation, allowing that although he was "annoyed" at first, he had come around to the company's way of seeing things.
		Squeeze is merely returning the "gift." "Some Fantastic Place" displays Squeeze at its best, blending English pop with otherworldly--screw it, churchybacking, replete with an oohing chorale and syncopated handclaps.

	SQUEEZE
		Squeeze are one of Britain's great singles bands and despite not denting the charts as much as they deserved to, have released some great 45's.
		I firmly believe that a band such as Squeeze will only reveal their world-class quality in a hundred years or so, when people start looking back at the music of this century and start to discern the true masterpieces which never manged to find favour with the blinkered media of the day.
		Squeeze deal in emotions and the flow of real human life, and they therefore provide the perfect soundtrack for anyone's personal history.

	Beatnuts - Take It Or Squeeze It - Album Reviews - The Elements - Your One Stop For Hip Hop and Rap Music
		This thirteen-song album not only had a great buzz going with the lead off single, 'No Escapin' This,' but was also bringing along high expectations from fellow fans.
		Did the album lead up to the hype, are there other such standout tracks as 'No Escapin' This' elsewhere on the album, have they elevated their game to another level, or did they just sit back and return fire with some half effort flop?
		The entirety of the album after track 7 is littered with up and coming MC's that are trying their best, but in the end failing at impressing the always harsh and judgmental hip hop crowd of critics.

	John Schlegel Reviews : Squeeze
		The album is primarily composed of punky New Wave rockers similar to the ones on Elvis Costello's masterpiece, 'This Year's Model' (actually, both albums emerged the same year).
		Although most of Squeeze's albums are now out of print, if you have a turntable, 'Argybargy' is a necessary LP for any genre enthusiast to hunt down.
		Overall, the song-for-song quality of this album is a little schizophrenic, but everything still combines to create an interestingly gloomy aura, and this might be the only time Squeeze were able to construct any real atmosphere.

	Augusta Georgia: Applause:Country trio back from detour off road to success 05/10/02
		Here's a little secret about McBride & The Ride's new album and new single (their first in seven years) being released May 21: When you hear (Momma's Got a) Squeeze Box off the trio's new Dualtone release, Amarillo Sky, you won't hear a squeeze box.
		Squeeze Box was written by Pete Townsend of The Who in 1975.
		Herndon is right in that it's a good summer song, but even more so, Amarillo Sky is a great album, full of potential hit singles like Sure Feels Like It, Anything That Touches You, Leave Her With Me, Why Not Colorado and especially the title cut.

	Glenn Tilbrook weds his own words to music for first solo album (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		For his first solo album, Tilbrook faced a challenge: write lyrics for the first time since he was 14.
		The album opener, "This Is Where You Ain't," was inspired by a parent's longing.
		The last time he toured with Squeeze, it was in name only; he was the only original member.

	SQUEEZE PAGE 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		This is the kind of material that just wouldn't sound right coming from the silver tongued Tilbrook, and somehow Difford's delivery meshes perfectly with the subject matter of the songs to paint a picture of a man who is in turn cranky, self depreciating, inebriated and world-weary.
		One of the most fun things about getting a new Squeeze album is listening out for the Difford tracks, and often you can tell he's going to be taking the lead vocal just from listening to the first few bars of music.
		One of the major shortcomings of the 'Play' album was the complete absence of an eccentric Difford track, and the whole album was rendered rather humourless as a result.

		And though the album is certainly flawed, an average Squeeze album is still pretty good, and when it hits -- as in "I've Returned," "His House Her Home," and the favorite "Black Coffee in Bed" -- it really hits.
		With previous albums, Difford and Tilbrook were able to make incisive observations on British life; the same holds true here, but the alcohol-soaked imagery and chaos between the lines of songs also reveals much about the internal problems of the band.
		Kissing to Be Clever is the album that put Culture Club on the musical map.

	Glenn Tilbrook: the late 90's
		The pub gigs were a tricky thing for Glenn to do at first, considering that all the Squeeze lyrics he sang were written by Chris, but he took care to thank Chris at every gig and explain to the audience that the band had not broken up; he was "just having a laugh".
		Earlier, when the album was still in the planning stages, he told The Bristol Evening Post, "I've been wanting to make a record on my own for quite a while, but while Squeeze has been together, that is where my interest has laid.
		He recorded the album with a full band rather than acoustically, but they will not be billed as Squeeze.

		It also masquerades as a concept album, albeit “loosely; this is less of a concept album than many reviews claimed at the time” (Mason).
		Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti was one of Squeeze’s most consistent albums and Babylon and On, while over-reaching in its attempt at pure pop, is still a catchier listen.
		Elsewhere on the album is the nice closing ballad There Is a Voice, but it is also largely pales when faced with superior efforts like “When the Hangover Strikes,” “Vanity Fair,” and even “Some Americans,” from previous albums.

	Squeeze Box King, MP3 Album Music Download at eMusic
		On Squeeze Box King, Jimenez drops the pop sheen and steps out into more traditional grassroots territory with a selection of polkas, boleros, and rancheras, all done with a sparse and genuine conjunto swing.
		The album opens with a well- known party polka, "En El Cielo No Hay Cerveza" ("In Heaven There Is No Beer"), but the version here is truly unique, with verses sung in English, Spanish, and Dutch, making it undoubtedly the first tri-lingual polka ever attempted.
		The Cumbia beats on "Ojitos Negros" mark it as a highlight, and the Afro/Cuban boleros are striking, as well, particularly the haunting "Tan Sola." The heart of the album, though, is Jimenez's Tex-Mex approach to the four rancheras ("De Donde Has Sacado," "Tumbo Sin Flores," "La Rosa Negra," and the album's closer, "La Tormenta").

	NO News is Good News
		East Side Story is my second favorite Squeeze album, coming just behind Argybargy.
		It was a CD bonus track for the first CD issue of the album.
		You really need to have heard some of their other albums to fully appreciate many of the characters that are in this one.

	XTC Forum - Squeeze
		Chris Difford was on the J Ross show on radio 2 recently,he said that squeeze were no more after he himself didn't show up for a USA tour and consequently he and Glenn fell out.
		Yep, Paul Carrack is the vocalist on "Tempted"- the album was produced by Elvis Costello.
		My favourite Squeeze tune is "Wedding Bells", a bonus track on the CD "Babylon And On" - the first Squeeze album I heard and owned.
