Rainbow Takeaway is the eighth studio album by Kevin Ayers. The core band is essentially the same as in his previous album, Yes We Have No Mañanas (So Get Your Mañanas Today). - Wikipedia

On the plus side Kevin puts the emphasis firmly on melody, and while this can result in him sound like a rich voiced crooner, it does mean that the album is pleasantly rewarding. The opening "Blaming it all on love" is a case in point, Ayers sounding somewhere between Peter Skellern and Sammy Davis Jnr(!). Likewise, the piano based "Waltz for you" is smoooooth, with a slightly Pink Floyd ("San Tropez", "Fat old sun") feel.
