OK, so I admit that Sophistipop is a genre I have just invented. Clever, slightly pretentious pop tracks, often featuring misjudged saxophones, or jazzy guitars. Basses get slapped, and frankly so should some of the band members.

Features a soft soul band from Seaham, and one of the greatest English songwriters of the 80s, along with a lot of other stuff
