he is most definately rooted back in that period as i found another album by him called "television themes" which is his take on old TV themes from UK shows from you guessed it....the 1970s.

back to the new album though:
like Ruby,
seemed to be a lot of one sound, very little change in anything really so i listened again.
same thing...like the album, no change in my opinion.
i want to say i really like it but do i really like it or is it because it sounds familiar,
and as we know, we all love familiarity as it makes us feel safe, secure and conforted especially in these uncertain times we now find ourselves in.
im sitting on the same fence as Ruby, afraid to get off because im not sure which grass is greener.
