    Leicester England's Diesel Park West has been cranking out stellar, topical rock'n'roll since their debut, Shakespeare Alabama, from 1989. The band's latest effort, Not Quite the American Dream, was made during the lockdown of 2020 and explores more thought provoking avenues all put to sturdy rhythms and hung on superb melodies. "Secondary Modern Man" is the best song Kinks song Ray Davies never wrote and "Best of You" could quite possibly make Paul Weller bristle with jealousy. If you are at all interested in classic British rock'n'roll with a little bit of social commentary thrown in the mix, this is the record for YOU.

about

John Butler: There must be millions of guys my age feeling the same way about someone. I very much hope so...

lyrics

If I had yesterday we’d have more time to play
but I am fifty eight years away from you
I’m gonna set you up to make your own and catch the wind that will take you where it's good to be
Though you can always say ”je parle francais"
I learned it long ago
someone taught me what he knew

Just as time fades and stories become real
Life stays the same but with a different feel
Now you’ll appreciate old things as well as new things
Strength to carry burden cos nothing is for certain

I’l watch over you for all eternity
that much I guarantee
You see a light? It may be me
If I had yesterday we'd have more time to play
but the candle burns just one way
Oh, if I had yesterday

That’s it for today
lets put those things away
that was a real good game, disputed penalties
Such a sunny day
look it’s such a sunny day
Such a sunny day
in underrated autumn
Such a sunny day, such a sunny day
How many did you see?
You know those swans on the water

If I had yesterday we'd have more time to play
but I am fifty eight years away from you
