A Grand Don't Come For Free

It's been an excruciating wait for the legion of Streets fans that picked up on Skinner's 2002 genre busting debut, Original Pirate Material, and his follow-up rewrites the rulebooks all over again. With a stream-of-consciousness narrative that threads throughout the record, A Grand Don't Come For Free plays like a musical in which Skinner paints a finely detailed, highly entertaining picture of his journey to self-discovery - via the DVD shop, the bookmakers, the pub, the club, the package-deal holiday, the kebab shop and, ultimately, Dumpsville. Delivered with compelling lyrical dexterity and all the elements of a great story (love, crime, betrayal, action and substance abuse), this is a superbly crafted record.
