Here's a UK pressing of Al Stewart's 1980 effort "24 Carrots," which found the Scottish singer-songwriter navigating the shifting musical landscape of the early '80s with characteristic intelligence and wit. Following the massive success of "Year of the Cat" and "Time Passages," Stewart was under pressure to deliver another commercial hit, and this album represents his attempt to embrace a more contemporary pop-rock sound while maintaining his trademark historical storytelling and intricate guitar work. The title track became a modest hit, but it's the deeper cuts like "Mondo Sinistro" and "Optical Illusion" where Stewart's narrative gifts truly shine, weaving tales that span centuries with the same ease other songwriters manage three-minute love songs.
