Simple, profound, perfect. These are professional-standard musicians.
Gracias por la musica - Olvidate me gusto mucho. Cuando lo ha oido, he piensado de los grupos ingleses de los anos 60's como Matching Mole y Flying Burrito Brothers. Y lo siento que no hablo (ni escrito) muy buen el espanol.
It's a great shame that there are only 2 tracks available,and that there isn't any information about the artists. Individually they have excellent voices; their harmonies are perfect. The lyrics are emotional without being twee nor cloying - there is a feeling that these people are siging about their own lives. The guitar playing is restrained, effective.
It would be a real pleasure to hear more from Serenade-Wonder.
These songs compare favourably with any put out by the great English folk singers - Bert Jansch, Nick Drake, Robyn Hitchcock and Davey Graham.
"I Love Leonard Cohen" and "The Winter Blues" are stand-outs.
A definite must-listen artist.
This is an album that lovers of the English singer-songwriting have been waiting for. Robin Grey joins the long line of artists spanning from Bert Jansch to Richard Thompson who become part of the fabric of traadition.
His lyrics are simple but profound, his tunes are catchy but technically brilliant. His voice will remind you of - well, Nick Drake? Ralph McTell?
Try "The Last Time I Saw David" for a wry, bitter take on religion. Listen to "The Finchley Waltz" for a perfectly-observed slice of life.
I have not seen Robin Grey live, but there is an intimacy about this recording that makes me think that he would give a concert to remember.
