At the end of February I saw Nadine Shah play a fine instore set at The Reflex Record Shop, a medal winning stone's throw from my flat in Newcastle . It was a splendid evening and she's source of no little local pride. She hails from South Tyneside.
Her latest album Filthy Underneath is a slinky, sensual and highly adept record of sharp, metallic Pop. Nadine is a smooth operator but not in the Sade vogue. This is a record that feeds into the rich multicultural traditions that Britain can proudly call on now. She's such a talent. The record rewards repeat plays.
