Don McGlashan’s long-awaited solo album
NZBC has been lucky enough to receive a pre-release copy of Don McGlashan’s solo album ‘Warm Hand’, out on Monday (Arch Hill Recordings AHR024). We’ll be reviewing it here soon — before which it deserves several more plays than we’ve had time to give it — and it’s sure to become heavy-rotation winter listening around these parts. Edmund McWilliams and Tom Miskin’s recording sounds strikingly intimate, although McGlashan’s voice, guitars, ukulele and percussion are augmented by a full ensemble, as well as strings and brass on a couple of titles. Early Neil Young and US folk are invoked in intriguing ways, and Blame and I Will Not Let You Down are instant standouts. Here’s hoping it gets the international distribution it deserves. Watch this space.
