The Light Footwork – Rapture Good, Rupture Bad
The Light Footwork have been off my radar for a while now. It’s been a couple of years since their debut album, and with only one EP since, I’ve perhaps paid them less attention than I should have done. That changed suddenly upon watching the excellent Beulah documentary, A Good Band Is Easy To Kill. I’d completely forgotten that Jay, one half of the Light Footwork, toured with the Beulah as an intern, and it was something of a surprise to see him popping up every now again in the film.
While watching the film kicked off my love of Beulah once again, it also had me returning to that Light Footwork album. The good news is that it’s still as good as I recall, a lovely laid back record that wouldn’t feel out of place in the mid-90s. Which as we all know is when the best music was being made. With a bit of luck we’ll get a new album from them this year and all will be right in the world once more.
