The Durutti Column - LC (1981)

Generally regarded as a false step, Vini Reilly's second album features vocals sung by himself. In retrospect, it's not that bad. His shy and calm singing suits the songs and it doesn't sound cheesy or unlistenable. While the debut "The return of the DC" was a collection of sketches and soundscapes, "LC" is one of Vini's most song-oriented and accessible albums. Best tracks here are the sad "Sketch for dawn I", the up-tempo "Jacqueline", and the intimate "Messidor". This CD also contains some worthwhile bonus tracks. Overall, the playful rhythms and the gorgeous guitar lines still sound timeless. Another classic album in Durutti Column's discography!
