It's a Pleasure

Description

The most stylish, talented, and endearing of British dandies is finally back with the aptly named "It's a Pleasure." After the critically acclaimed "Happy Soup," "It's A Pleasure" has everything to catapult BAXTER DURY to the pinnacle of indie pop. Baxter Dury, a brilliant and endearing character, a talented songwriter, and a fabulous entertainer, recorded "It's A Pleasure" between Paris, New York, and his own living room. It features a series of pop yet insightful songs, comedic vignettes, and disturbed synths, humorously depicting a man's battle with existence. And it's wonderful. The introductory single, "Pleasure," combines deceptive rhythms and distorted synths. On the provocative "Other's Men Girls," Dury is at his best as he comments on a romantic disaster. Elsewhere, we discover the sad disco of "Petals," the bristling whirlwind of "Wintery Kisses," and the turbulent "Police," inspired by a noise complaint incident with a neighbor – an anecdote that even made it into the British tabloids. Driven by several irresistible singles (Pleasure, Palm Trees, Other Men's Girls...) and accompanied by massive media and marketing support, "It's a Pleasure" has everything to make BAXTER DURY a French favorite.
