Fink - Wheels Turn Beneath My Feet
Live album recorded during the Perfect Darkness tour in 2011-12. Stunning sound quality and awesome songs in one 79 minute package.

Video quality is terrible, but this is imho FINK at his very finest, playing with Manu Katche and Pino Paladino:

Thatās absolutely unreal! Wow.
An excellent album Ian and already in my collectionā¦
ā¦but thanks for reminding me to give it a spin!
Great album.
Not easy to get a copy on vinyl unfortunately but it is a great listen.
I would very much like to hear this on LP. The TIDAL stream is very bright and quite compressed. It was much, much louder than the LPs I played before and after which didnāt help. It seems like a nicely recorded LP despite this. The guitars are beautifully played and recorded. I am less convinced by the vocals, which are a bit too much for my tastes. Having said this, I knew nothing about Fink and enjoyed listening to this. Iāll try to listen to some of the other albums but suspect I wonāt end up buying much at this stage.
Meh.
Beautifully recorded and mastered but I doubt Iād miss listening to it again.

Here I found something more interesting;
Very much my thoughts.
I have heard various tracks at bake-offs where it seems to have supplanted Nils Lofgren Acoustic Live as the ālook how good it soundsā choice.
Donāt get me wrong I quite liked it but it all became a bit predictable and his voice is not my cup of tea (well heās not a pretty girl is heš).
Overall 7/10
Fink not.

I listened to this a few years ago and not again until now.
As has been said, amazingly well played and recorded but his voice is too forward / loud and seems to have only one lilt.
That is a real shame, as there are some great tracks (e.g. Blueberry Pancakes) musically, and the Album as a whole is fairly musically diverse, interesting even.
Itās just that his voice seems to make everything sound the same, a bit like Nick Drake does.
Pleased I listened to it again - 5 1/2 / 10 for me.
Too much singing in an annoying way, not enough funk.
C- could do better.
All very āaudiophileā except itās got a bloke who canāt sing instead of a female.
Boring. Repetitive. Dull. Dross.
Itās good to be back
Surely you are used to that with prog

I quite enjoyed this - first time Iāve ever heard him and must admit quite impressive for a live album. Not something I would buy on vinyl but will investigate him further on Spotify.
Quick listen. And Iām thinking Jeff Buckley meets John Martyn with a modern, trendy vibe. Some nice guitar sounds. Overall, it didnāt grab me. A bit soulless. But Iāve only listened once so canāt guarantee Iām right.
