Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Troubadour, fire-eater, busker, tap dancer--Rory McLeod has, it can safely be said, seen life. For much of the 1990s he travelled the world armed with nothing more than a guitar, harmonica and a pair of spoons, occasionally dropping into studios to record an impressive body of work. His fifth album confirms his status as one of our great-unsung musical heroes. Accepted song structure is ignored--McLeod says what he has to say whether it takes 48 seconds or over ten minutes. Lyrically he can move from a simple tribute to his grandmother to the joys of booze ("my friends say without olives in my drink I'd starve to death"), all delivered with charm and panache and a slight, but forgivable, tendency to meander. Despite supplementing his own vocals, guitar, foot percussion, spoons, trombone and frankly incredible harmonica work with a range of guest players--all of whom add neat touches--it is Rory who dominates throughout, the sheer force of his personality shining though every moment. --Phil Udell
