I don't think Alice sounds much like Alice on either album. I didn't find out for years that Mike sings lead on one song.
The production on both is lacking.

Re: Pretties For You
He also sings lead on two songs on EA.
"Go and listen to "Beautiful Flyaway" and "Below Your Means" on the 'Easy Action' album. Does Alice's voice sound a little different on those tracks? It's actually Michael Bruce singing the lead vocals on those songs. You can hear Alice singing as well on the songs, especially on "Below Your Means", but it is Michael who's voice is featured.

Is Shoe Salesman sang by Michael Bruce?
Re: Pretties For You
Alice penned this song himself and it was his first attempt at actually writing a complete song. I therefore think it's safe to say he sang the main vocal. Certainly sounds like him to me, but I could be wrong.While Heaven Wept wrote:Is Shoe Salesman sang by Michael Bruce?

Re: Pretties For You
I thought that was the case, i seem to remember someone suggesting it was MB and that always confused me as it definitely sounds like Alice!
Great song.
