CD Reviews

Ralph McTell on Dylan Thomas--the meeting of two great poets

Okie | Edmond, OK USA | 12/12/1999

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Boy With a Note is an epic work containing Ralph McTell's reflections on the life of Dylan Thomas. Thought-provoking and beautifully melodic, like all McTell's work, this CD addresses (through the life of the original 'Dylan') the topics of alcohol, art, the creative process, fame, insecurity, love and the destructive power of it all. If you know anything about Dylan Thomas' life, you'll be astonished at the detail McTell is able to incorporate here. But if you know anything about McTell's life, you'll recognize the underlying passion and doubt as his own. This is truly a haunting and engaging work. Don't put it on when you are planning to get anything else done -- all I could do was listen."
