Synopsis

Album Description

Here is an album about a more intimate, predominantly acoustic music. Flutes, chimes, and gentle organ sounds. It spins tales of faraway lands, sand, sea, castles, kings, queens and even Peter Pan. Songs Of Sunshine is incense & innocence, folk rock 'n' flowers. Well played, tastily arranged and overlooked. 10 tracks. Radio Active. 2006.

CD Reviews

Anglo-style folk with punch...

(4 out of 5 stars)

"It's a tantalizing mystery to figure out how Radioactive Records chooses its material. This one is a little more "accessible" than some of their offerings. First, it is in a musical style readily recognizable, Anglo-folk-rock in the general vein of the Strawbs and perhaps Lindisfarne and countless others. The band spends much of their time letting the "rock" element influence, as in the jaunty opening track "Days of Sunshine" and the absolute killer version of Dylan's "Tom Thumb Blues." The blasting Hammond and stylish guitar noodles on the latter just blew me away. I couldn't help but think that maybe I could appreciate the whole CD better if those two songs weren't so great. Try programming these to the end and see how that works for you. A fine effort, overall."
