JUDY DYBLEFlow And Change
Gonzo Multimedia 2013
It’s
only a few months since I reviewed the reissue of 2009s “Talking With
Strangers”, saying “expect the unexpected, then prepare yourself for something
even more unexpected”. And here’s the follow up, which is a direct descendant
thus nullifying the previous statement. Because it’s all very expected,
folk-rock into prog-rock into goodness who knows what rock. But very
good.
The
missing surprise really doesn’t matter as Ms Dyble and her collaborators,
including producer and co-writter Alistair Murphy, along with Matt Malley
(Counting Crows), Julianne Regan (All About Eve), Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson)
and Mike Mooney (Spiritualized) have done a bang up job.
Don’t
come here if you’re looking for flash bang wallop thrills, but if you want to
take the time to reflect upon things said and unsaid in a stately, regal, yet
emotional manner then this is the place for you. Granted, there are a couple of
uber hippy moments that get my trigger fingy itchy, but this is the kind of
thing that gave music a good name back in ye olde days. Ms Dyble is sounding
better than ever, and if you’re looking for something that’s been missing from
music, then this is a good place to start.
