Subtle as a Flying Mallet was the second solo album by Dave Edmunds, principally focused on sound-alike remakes of late 1950s and early 1960s hits. All of the vocals (except on the live tracks) are by Edmunds, and many of the songs are true solo efforts in that Edmunds also plays all the instruments. The album produced two Top 10 singles in the UK, remakes of the Phil Spector hit "Baby, I Love You" and The Chordettes' "Born to Be with You"

one man, who spent weeks overdubbing himself to sound like his own wall of sound. And the main problem with Subtle as a Flying Mallet is that these are not reinterpretations; they are re-creations, and there's little point in hearing a one-man version of rock classics if he offers no new ideas.

DAVE EDMUNDS-SUBTLE AS A FLYING MALLET: Few artists carried the retro rock torch higher or more convincingly than its ultimate revivalist, Welsh rocker DAVE EDMUNDS. hardly a surprise from the man whose biggest hit was an echo-laden reboot of HUEY "PIANO" SMITH's Big Easy gemstone I HEAR YOU KNOCKING

Taking the one-man band aesthetic to an extreme, Dave Edmunds recorded nearly all of his second album, Subtle as a Flying Mallet, on his own, hiring a bassist and a drummer for only a pair of tracks. one man who spent weeks overdubbing himself to sound like his own Wall of Sound.
