5.0 out of 5 stars Moray please!, 2 Feb 2009
By Ms. Rebekah Williams "Rebekah Williams" (Birmingham, England.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Poor Man's Heaven
I stumbled on this album quite by accident, and am I glad I did. Folk music is alive and kicking if this new brigade of young turks are anything to go by...
Sounding like a Seth Lakeman/Ben Christophers hybrid, Moray shares that particular brand of tender strength necessary to convincingly sell more 'traditional' music to 21st century listeners.
Skillfully using his voice as the storyteller, this set of songs cross gender and span centuries - and backed by fine acoustic, and sometimes string-soaked musicianship, this album leaves the listener with an unusual and sometimes haunting auditory experience.
'Nightvisiting' is so achingly beautiful, I bet Kate Bush wishes she had written it 30 years ago as the sequel to 'Wuthering Heights!'. 'My sweet Rose' is a towering lament to lost love that almost out-Rufuses Rufus Wainwright in the Gothic-Glam heartbreak stakes.
'Fair and Tender Lovers' provides a sweetly Lilting mood shift, and album closer - 'Magic When your Near' is surely a Valentine's day anthem-in waiting.
Musically akin to the Lovely Seth Lakeman, Ben Christophers, Cara Dillon and that ilk - If you enjoy folk with a twist and songs with substance, then invest in this CD.
Although... quite why Moray looks like a New Romantic reject on the album cover is anyone's guess...!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb! Buy it!!!, 11 May 2006
This is a stunning return trip from Jim Moray. His experiments in sound on 'Sweet England' were a thing to behold but this record takes it to another level. There are no boundaries here. He simply does what is right for the song. He is not restricted by his perceived standing as a folk artist. He draws in from what must be an astoundingly deep well of music knowledge to express the right soundscapes for each song. The results are spine-tingling, subtle, unique and impossible to describe with words. Buy it and find out for yourself!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Moments of true genius, 9 May 2006
By Martin A. Swain "Diggermol" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The second album can sometimes be a very difficult challenge but Jim Moray has ably risen to the challenge with a beautiful piece of work that, in my view touches genius on a couple of occasions! Very difficult to categorise but there are moments of Prefab Sprout crossed with Elton John and Marc Almond. Highlights for me are "Lord Willoughby" - a triumphant battle tale, the achingly beautiful "My Sweet Rose" and "Gilderoy" and the anthemic finale "Magic When You're Near".
It is truly refreshing to hear some new and fresh music that can transcend barriers and I would recommend this album to anyone who wants to hear something just a little different. For me, the future's looking good for Jim Moray and I cannot wait for what will follow...............

4.0 out of 5 stars Weird cover
Picture on cover and sleeve notes are weird (see for yourself). Content is less like his other English folk, but definitely worth a listen.

This is one of those performances that cause embarassment to the listener for the artist, and then anger, a sense of having been cheated. Read more
