Langhorne Slim has recorded 3 albums in his relatively short time on this planet and with his band the War Eagles he is currently the hot favourite of the American music blogs. Sometimes they do get very excited in their race to find the next big thing but in this case I think they are backing a winner.
Langhorne Slim stands in that line of emerging American song writers who are huge on the festival circuits but have yet to ship copious amounts of records. These include Josh Ritter, the wonderful Avett Brothers, Elvis Perkins, A A Bondy, Joe Pug and Conor Oberst (although the latter's Bright Eyes group is very well known)
The danger with the singer songwriter tradition is that it is sometimes full of maudlin lyrical sensibilities or in the case of some American songwriters driven by people who never came to terms with the fact that Woodstock ended in 1969. Langhorne Slim alternatively can be positively raucous. Check out the superb "She's Gone" from his previous album, similarly checkout his wonderful performance of the acerbic single "Restless" on Letterman which is on you tube.
I would venture to suggest that in "Be Set Free" Mr Slim has produced his first classic. "Back to the Wild" opens the album in rip roaring style and is a truly great song. Amazingly two songs which follow are equally good or better. "Say Yes" has a John Lennon style "Rock n Roll" era aura while "I love you, but goodbye" is an excellent Dylanish song which is probably the albums highlight. So Glad I'm Coming Home achieves a vintage feel from the Rhodes piano. While "For a little while" is a stunning smoky blues number with great vocals and it all rounds off in fine style with the soul rocker "Boots Boy". A couple of songs on the album are bit formulaic (Sunday by the Sea) and any song (Be set free) that starts with the lyric "Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrong, time it goes by, life it goes on" suggest that a course in A level poetry would not go amiss. A shame really since the song itself is very strong . However a real talent in the making is to found here and well done Mr Slim.
