The album was recorded in Liverpool during a series of sessions with members of The Coral and The Zutons. On its original release in 2004, \u003ci\u003eTales Told\u003c\/i\u003e marked a departure from Ian’s previous work with The Lightning Seeds. Instead, Ian stripped his songwriting to its bare fundaments, drawing on personal events in his life to create an album of tender, lovelorn ruminations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIan is best known for his work with The Lightning Seeds, whose debut single Pure heralded a run of well-loved hits which included \u003ci\u003eSense, The Life of Riley, Marvelous, Lucky You, Change\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eYou Showed Me.\u003c\/i\u003e With The Lightning Seeds, Ian was also responsible for the multi-platinum single \u003ci\u003eThree Lions\u003c\/i\u003e, which in 2018 made chart history when it enjoyed its fourth spell at number one – the most enjoyed by the same artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2004, Ian Broudie’s \u003ci\u003eTales Told\u003c\/i\u003e is a lost, lovelorn masterpiece which saw Broudie strip away all the ornamentation found on his best-known Lightning Seeds songs – alchemising the emotions of the “turbulent and uncertain years” preceding it into a work of deeply personal beauty. Other musicians featured on the record include members of The Coral and The Zutons.\u003ci\u003e Tales Told \u003c\/i\u003eis available as a Needle Mythology vinyl album, with a four-track EP of outtakes, three of which are previously unreleased. A vinyl replica CD version featuring the extra four songs is also be available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpeaking about its belated vinyl debut, Ian says, “I’m proud that \u003ci\u003eTales Told \u003c\/i\u003ehas been chosen as one of the records to launch Needle Mythology.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Needle Mythology","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50471977419083,"sku":"1060334","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50471977582923,"sku":"1060333","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/57b09171-9265-484b-84c2-753395222a83_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727413285","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/tales-told","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
