2 stars Tombstone Valentine has to be the weakest Wigwam album (At least of their albums up to Dark album, haven't heard the rest) I have heard. Being (Heheh) released after the awesome, underrated debut album "Hard 'n' Horny" and coming out before the excellent "Fairyport" this album fails to reach the listener. it's too pop-ish to be concidered prog at all and most songs just are too boring to remember. There are few nice songs, In Gratitude!, Fredrick and Bill and the Keyboard jamfest End. Rest of the songs are either "Ok" or unbearable (The opening number, The Title Track, has to be one of the most annoying songs by Wigwam ever, can't stand the accordian). This is also the first album to feature the amazing Bassist Pekka Pohjola.

Tombstone Valentine is Wigwam in it's weakest form, you should buy Nuclear Nightclub, the most amazing Pop album they ever made, it even has some prog in it! Buy this for the same reason as I did, to fullfill your Wigwam collection. (Actually 2.5, but 3 stars out of five would be a bit too good for this LP.)

Wutu Banale | 2/5 |
