Ocean Colour Scene: Painting - PopMatters.
Ocean Colour Scene returned to England halfway through the year, planning to record a new album quickly, but Bates rejected their new material. Soon, the band sued to get out of its Fontana contract. By the time it was settled in early 1993, the group owed hundreds of thousands of pounds to the label and they were back on the dole.

Sadly, I must report, that this is the worst Ocean Colour Scene album by a country mile. I've bought every OCS album (studio, bestof, or live), nearly every single (including the 2CD singles), solo albums, dvds, attended many concerts, and purchased the T-shirts, and this is the only OCS purchase I've regretted.
Yes, this is an unofficial collection on the Spectrum label and a definite money-spinner. I am a life long listener of Ocean Colour Scene, own all their studio albums and the official Songs For The Front Row - The Best Of compilation, but still think this is a worthwhile purchase. I did feel cheated however, because I bought this primarily for the studio version of 'Robin Hood', my favourite.

Formed from the remnants of several local Brummie bands and despite a few false starts, Ocean Colour Scene rode high of the wave of the indie era, releasing their first single Sway to positive reviews during the early 1990s. However, it wasn't until Paul Weller invited them to tour with him that the public really embraced the group, helped further by later joining Oasis on their 1995 gigs.
Saturday is the ninth studio album by Ocean Colour Scene and first album by the band to be released on the Cooking Vinyl independent record label. The album was produced by Gavin Monaghan, who is also known for his work with Editors, Scott Matthews, Nizlopi and The Twang and engineered by Gazz Rogers.
