What
a wonderfully alternative album! I love it when preconceptions of
an artist are utterly destroyed upon listening to their CD - from
the description of Glyn's vocal style of being reminiscent of Bowie
I prepared myself for some mediocre semi-droning but how wrong I was!
Yes, there is a similarity to Bowie in as much Glyn has a distinct
& powerfully individual sound but musically that's where the comparison
ends. I've never been a big fan of Bowie but I definitely could be
of Glyn Bailey - the album is a fantastically diverse collection of
alternative tunes ranging from acoustica to psychedelia - with each
song married to beautifully crafted lyrics filled with the echoes
of real life - sometimes humorous, sometimes melancholy, at times
even political - this superb collection of life experiences put to
music can not fail to touch everyone at some point during the hour+
of listening time. Spot-on sound production and Slick packaging make
this a debut album plenty of mainstream artists could learn a few
lessons from!
