The album
title is no misrepresentation.

Ed Case may be the name in the frame amongst the "garage" fraternity,
but to the greater music public it’s a case of Ed who?
Suffice to say,
he’s the guy who gave Gorillaz "Clint Eastwood" a facelift and turned
it into a world wide hit.
Since then the
happening world has been beating a retreat to Ed Case’s front door.
Thus, Ed’s Guest
List boasts contributions from the likes of ex-Skunk Anansie Skin,
one time Republica leader Saffron, Ms Dynamite, Robbie Craig and
Sweetie Irie to name but a few.
And don’t be
fooled by the fact that Ed is "garage" king.
This album boasts
a variety of tones – some you’ll like, some you won’t – but it destroys
the myth that "garage" is one sound and that’s your lot.
Ed Case has
been big underground for a long time. Single success with "Who?"
boosted his presence.
This album is
already receiving rave reviews. While it might not make him a household
name like Fat Boy and Oakenfold, the chances are, when he comes
to making up Ed’s second list, the number and calibre of guests
will have increased dramatically.
