Cold Stone 9. Long Lankin 10. Home Upon The Hill. Dan Simpson Rocky, classy, and one where every track is genuinely in there for favourite, but for so many different reasons. Really feels totally secure in its sound, probably for the first time in a Jim Moray album. Favorite track: William Taylor. Moray's elision of folk and pop is self-conscious but increasingly confident, as if the further he gets from the source, the more he enjoys riding the river of song. This is his fourth shot at big-time appeal and the most coherent. Drums are all over it like logs in a torrent, and if there are no great variations in temperature and tempo, that ought to be compensated for by the sheer musicality of the arrangements, which accomodate both the tropes of pub folk and, in William Taylor, Zep's Kashmir. Pretty wonderful. More about . Along with an effortlessly melodic voice, Moray's willingness to experiment has made him one of the brightest, if most controversial, young talents in English folk. His fourth album arrives in a bluster of buzzsaw guitars that bury voice and song Bristol Harbour, and continues with a whimsical spoken-word Spencer the Rover that loses the pathos of its famous template. Elsewhere, Moray dazzles, whether on his own Hard, a tender love lament, or the ancient, ghoulish Long Lankin. Features Song Lyrics for Jim Moray's In Modern History album.
