andy is a national treasure
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
If you thought Andy Fairweather Low was a faded 1960s pop idol from the time when he lead 'Amen Corner', then think again! 'Amen Corner' did enjoy considerable popstar success with their RnB and soul inspired pop music, including 'Bend Me, Shape Me', 'High in the Sky' and the amazing 'Gin House'. However, Andy's back - in his sixties now - with a bunch of fresh new songs, a fantastic all star band and that same old unique vocal delivery which gained him such a fan-following first time round. An under-rated guitarist in the early days, he's now showing what practice can do when combined with talent. Fifteen years on the road and in the studio with Eric Clapton's band has undoubtedly helped. The live show, which draws from this album as well as some of the Amen Corner back catalogue is lively, fresh and fun. Andy seems genuinely delighted to be out there fronting his own band, The Low Riders, and the rapturous applause from a capacity audience of all ages showed he still has the magic touch. As he said at the end, "It's good to be back."Read full review
I loved this artists work with Amen corner, and was interested to see how much his voice had altered since his time with that group. The voice is not quite as flexible as it was, and he seems to have become more serious on this cd. However, I enjoyed it and think that with repeated playing i will get to like it more.Hope this is of some help.
