Twist and Shout intro.

Is that where his delivery comes from? If you try to sing like Brian Ferry but with a cockney accent, you come out of it sounding like Steve Harley?

Distant guitar solo.

Track 3 - Loretta's Tale.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:37 pm

Kinks influence.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:37 pm

The sound seems quite thin on this album.

by Nightjar Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:39 pm

The songs aren't standing out very strongly so far.

It has a kind of Slapp Happy insipidness about it. evil2

There's a lot of that nice twinkly keyboard sound thus far.

Perhaps too much.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:40 pm

This one lost momentum during that solo.

by Guest Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:41 pm

Sounds like Dexys!
