Tindersticks
Features
Tindersticks have just released their first album in five years. With typical understatement, they are introducing it with this single British gig, and they have gone to great lengths to make it one to remember. The three remaining members of the original lineup, singer Stuart Staples, keyboardist David Boulter and guitarist Neil Fraser, are augmented tonight by strings, horns and an electric band, enlarging the sparse music until it achieves a crepuscular magnificence.

We presumably have the Black Eyed Peas to thank for this well-packaged, double CD of psychedelic and pop Indian film music from one of the wilder Bollywood eras.
