Baxter Dury – I Thought I Was Better Than You (Pink Vinyl)

Musician, writer and Renaissance man Baxter Dury returns with , I Thought I Was Better Than You, his seventh studio album.

The album is produced by Paul White, celebrated for his work in Golden Rules and with the likes of Charlie XCX and Danny Brown.

I Thought I Was Better Than You marks a new era for Baxter, and with this new era comes a new character. “Faux-confrontational,” Baxter calls him. Here, not only is he recounting his childhood, but he’s also reckoning with it. Instead of just swinging at his past blindfolded with a baseball bat, he talks openly about the toxic cocktail of being born into unfortunately fortunate circumstances, with a persuasive surname but no structure or sense of responsibility with which reap the rewards of it
