Any Trouble - Present Tense (2015)

2015 album from the veteran pop/pub rock band fronted by Mancunian singer/songwriter Clive Gregson. Any Trouble was signed to Stiff in 1980 and were touted by the press as the next Elvis Costello & The Attractions. Any Trouble's debut album Where Are All The Nice Girls was critically acclaimed. The band followed with Wheels In Motion (1981), then signed with EMI America before disbanding in 1984 after five LPs. In 2007, Any Trouble reunited for a new album Life In Reverse. Now they're back with more intelligent, melodic songs penned by Clive - a double album's worth of tunes entitled Present Tense. This follows Cherry Red's recent triple CD anthology of Any Trouble's Stiff recordings.
