Latest Reviews
Mdou Moctar
Funeral For Justice
Moctar has refashioned a piece of my own musical history, now shiny and chrome. The grandeur is all-enveloping here; a minor epic built from a surfeit of dissident spirit and Van Halen fanaticism

The Lemon Twigs
A Dream Is All We Know
Flows seamlessly, with no snags disrupting its mellow mood-tapestry, right up until final track Rock On (Over And Over) throws us a curveball by actually glamming out, Bolan-style, as if to say, “Here’s what you thought we were about”. Superb

The Lemon Twigs
A Dream Is All We Know
The LP opens with “My Golden Years”, a delectable mélange of Harrisonian 12-string riffs, Wilsonian harmonies and layer-cake hooks, and reaches its apex with the glorious Beach Boys homage “In The Eyes Of The Girl”, with Sean Ono Lennon co-producing and playing bass. Print edition only

Fearless Movement
Jazz remains the root of his sound, with Washington’s saxophone as bold and vibrant as ever. But the grand orchestral sweep of albums past is pared back, replaced by adeeper engagement with hip-hop, funk and soul. Print edition only
