For too many years this album was a buried treasure in the Paul Simon back catalogue. Danny Neill takes us on a journey back to 1965 to explore ‘The Paul Simon Songbook’. An innovator always in pursuit of new sounds…An LP recorded in a single day…it was a big deal.

Bill Stone wrote songs that played out like dreamy meditations. The delivery is soft-focused and hushed, Lo-fi before lo-fi existed…This is definitely one of those rare records that deserve the wider discovery it will now surely enjoy.

Danny Neill chooses his Best Albums of 2020 ft. Amy LaVere, Bob Dylan, Sarah Jarosz, Courtney Marie Andrews, Ariel Sharratt & Mathias Kom, Brigid Mae Power, Terry Allen, Jason Isbell, Laura Cortese and Richard & Linda Thompson

It is clear from the get-go that these guys are working from the same core recipes. The key is in the inspiration and motivation; when Kacy & Clayton and Marlon Williams make music they are copiously fuelled by an abundance of both.

Sarah Jarosz’s stories are carved like a craftsman’s antique furniture, with an attention to detail and capacity for nuance lending these sketches a depth and realism that ensures repeated listening is a rewarding experience.
