Album Review
Red West
Reviewed 2004-02-17
Great mix., I was expecting all truck driving or country western but there's variety here. It's all good. Documents a weekly alt-country theme night at a Brixton UK bar.

+1. Duet with a country guy and an Irish guy, with a little blues harp, nice contrasts! sweet reminiscing of touring 'round and playing to near empty bars.
+2.tabla and steel guitar! starts off sounding Indian & ends up like, uh, Deliverance? nice contrasts!
+3. mello downer pop. intro has funky guitar effects (heavy wah),
4.harmonica & guitar intro. Rock which reminds me a little of Sinhead Oconner probably because an Irish woman sings.
+5.acoustic guitar, bass, mandolin, fuzzy male vocal, sweet folky pop
+6.alt-bluegrass-zydeco with off-key male vox
7.weird noisey indie-pop freak, sounds like the previous track filtered
8.acoustic guitar, over-pretty
9.ok alt-country, male vox, mid-tempo
10.slow slightly bluesy alt-country, nice fem vocal
11.more bluesy, somewhat aggressive fem vox, underproduced.
12.slow solo acoustic guitar & male vocal, simple & nice. violin later
+13. instrumental. harp? nice mellow trip-hoppy lounge
14nick cave lite
+15.happy old-style western, peppy fem vocals
16. drums like U2
