ROB THOMPSON is a gifted singer/songwriter and guitarist from Swansea, South Wales. Rob first found international success as a founder member of the critically acclaimed band The STORYS whose debut album in 2003 he co wrote and produced. Sir ELTON JOHN impressed by the band invited them to be initially special guests on his UK tour and Rob with The Storys went on to tour not only UK but Europe and Scandinavia for the next 2 years. This experience and growing band following led to further support slots with acts as diverse as SUSANNE VEGA, SANTANA, VAN MORRISON to sharing stage with JOE WALSH,STEVE WINWOOD and BILL WYMAN. Robs songs can be heard in the American teen drama One Tree Hill and number 1 box office film The Bank Job in which he also briefly appears. Dust is Robs debut solo album and his wonderful evocative songs showcase not only his abilities as a lead singer but also his unique and widely acclaimed guitar playing skills. Tracks: Dust / Could You Come Around? / It All Makes Sense In The End / I Can't Tune In / The Director's Cut / Standing Still / Watching How All The Dust's Drawn To The TV / The Ending Credits / Dust (radio edit)
I bought this along with 'Closure' by Andy Collins, both of whom are Ex The Storys.
Like all music, a review will be subjective but if you like The Eagles then I'm sure you will like this.
Fortunately, Neither Thompson nor Collins have strayed too far from the Style of Music The Storys were so good at so have a look at The Storys website where you can listen to some of their music.
This is without doubt one of the best albums to emerge in 2010 and certainly the best of the year on the Angel Air label. Rob was previously a member of The Storys but has spread his wings and produced this solo effort. How can I best describe it? How about laid back, sublime, easy going, beautiful and catchy with plenty of memorable hooks and lyrics. It is an absolute gem from beginning to end and he should be very proud of this lovely collection of songs. Clever.
