The Bay City Rollers' reverberating, lonely ode
Leslie McEwen's solo debut depicts the gap between glorious memories and reality.
In stark contrast to his time as a group member, the album's songwriting is more mature, particularly the title track "All Washed Up," which sings of complex feelings about lost youth. The production is also sophisticated, carefully portraying the state of mind of a grown man while maintaining a pop sensibility. This album marks an interesting turning point in which creative endeavors away from commercial success have yielded artistic depth.
