The reclusive and now very much bearded Paddy McAloon returns next month with a brand-new Prefab Sprout album entitled Crimson/Red
The 10-track Crimson/Red is due out Oct. 7 in the U.K., and it’s the sophistipop act’s first since the 2009 release of Let’s Change the World With Music, a collection that actually had been mostly recorded in the early ’90s as an aborted follow-up to Jordan: The Comeback. So it’s really the first new Prefab Sprout music since The Gunman and Other Stories in 2001.

Man! off the charts excited! Right up there with TFF for me. Terrific to see Paddy return since I was concerned we would not see him again if at all.
btw, he’s been bearded for quite some time now, long before his last album.
Good track, the police sirens had me looking out of the window to see what was going on out there.
salford, I didn’t know where the sirens were coming from–until I read your comment! I like it.
Really good track…. the sirens did throw me at first….. but a bit lightweight… and thought I heard Martin Frey at first.. oops…
Really nice – their music is timeless
nice sound takes me back to the early days i love it! get rid of the beard though u look like a nonc
I´m so happy. Prefab is back. And so good. Thanks a lot..
Hey, my love and I, look at us now, Steve McQueen, I want more more more. Prefab paddy. I love your style, so give us more clever and intrinsic music mr macaloon.
