RSD 20/4/24:
Originally released in 2000, Little Kix was the swansong of the Paul Draper led Mansun before the eventual break up in 2003. Recorded aboard The Astoria, the celebrated David Gilmour owned recording studio, it was perhaps the most commercially oriented release from the band. Favouring traditional pop structures over their classic prog rock tendencies. Stepping away from the producer role, Paul Draper took more of a backseat whilst Grammy award-winning Hugh Padgham (The Police, Genesis, Phil Collins) was appointed producer for the album. The album peaked at #12 on the UK Albums Chart and was also certified silver by the BPI. Notoriously the most divisive release amongst the fans, Little Kix is an essential addition to the Mansun completists collection. The final Mansun album recorded before the band’s dissolution Little Kix is available on limited edition Clear LP for the first time and is limited to 2000 copies.
