Review by Paul Love

China Doll by Julian Cope is a unique album that showcases the artist's diverse musical influences and creative vision. The album features a blend of psychedelic rock, folk, and world music, and is characterized by its intricate instrumentation and poetic lyrics.

The opening track, "Easter Everywhere," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its dreamy, otherworldly soundscapes and haunting vocals. "China Doll" is a standout track that showcases Cope's ability to seamlessly blend different musical genres, with its Eastern-inspired melodies and Western rock rhythms.

Other notable tracks include "Reynard the Fox," which features a lively folk-inspired melody and playful lyrics, and "Bill Drummond Said," which is a tribute to the artist's former bandmate and collaborator, Bill Drummond.

I had this as part of a cassette in the early 90s and although I did love it I do have to admit the overuse "la-la-la" that becomes off beat used to get on my nerves!! Haha!
