Reviews

  • "Big Yellow Taxi" is a perilous undertaking — guitar-based songs often become earthbound in a big band treatment, losing their natural flow — but Towns is able to sustain a lightness of accompaniment that sets off Winstone's original take on the melody. Elvis Costello’s "15 Petals" has a quasi-African feel, whilst Leonard Cohen's "Sisters of Mercy" reaches a nightmarish centre-point with discords reminiscent of Kurt Weill. -- AllAboutJazz
