Clearlake, Cedars Review

Clearlake, Cedars - I found this quite interesting. I bought it as a result of a glowing newspaper review, having nothing else to go on. Initially I found the singer's voice clear but annoying, as he threw in sudden changes of key for no apparent reason, except to make listening more demanding. In time I have grown to like it more.



I liked "Trees In The City" straight off (and chose it for my funeral selection), but discovered then that the song didn't work in isolation - it needed all the preceding weird songs to make it stand out. Subsequent plays have promoted "I Wonder If It Will Snow This Winter" to favourite. I am still working on the other tracks, but actually look forward to playing the CD now.
