In fact, it rather hoped that everybody lured into earshot by his recent chart-topping lament for outlaws Bonnie & Clyde (the opening The Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde, of course), would all come hurtling in. In fact they didnt, and the album marked Fames first non-charting outing since his debut, five years before which means the millions missed out on a handful of cuts that were at least as enjoyable as the hit. A version of the Beatles When Im 64 rivals any other cover of that song, with Fames treatment truly capturing the foreboding that lurks behind the superficial buoyancy of the lyric, while theres also a heartfelt version of George and Ira Gershwins Someone to Watch Over Me.
Earlier fans are treated to a powerful visit to St James Infirmary, which proves that Fame has lost none of his earlier taste for menacing R&B, while the closing romp through Donovans Mellow Yellow is nothing if not, er, mellow. Third Face of Fame can scarcely be recommended to anybody yearning for Fame himself to return to the blues-breaking growl of old. But, as an example of British pops own longtime fascination with adult-sounding entertainment, its certainly an enjoyable slice of very easy listening. Dave Thompson/AMG
