For many the greatest Irish band never to have made an international breakthrough, A House boasted an ace card in the quirky, uncompromising songwriting brilliance of Dave Couse. I Am The Greatest, their 1991 opus, was their third and most critically acclaimed album (though they would go on to make the highly regarded Wide Eyed And Ignorant, which contained their best known song, ‘Here Come The Good Times’).
Produced by Edywn Collins, I Am The Greatest contained tracks ‘You’re Too Young’ and the singles ‘Endless Art’, (which reached number 46 in the UK singles charts) and ‘Take It Easy On Me’ (originally a b-side before it was flipped over and released in its own right). A House finally folded in 1997 through lack of commercial success though Couse has since pursued a solo career.
