Many Variants of Hammill,
By A Customer
This review is from: OUT OF WATER (Audio CD)
Many Hammill fans consider his late 80's output (the Enigma period) to be some of his weaker recordings. This recording, however, is one that should not be lumped with the much weaker "Skin" or "In a Foreign Town" recordings. I often consider this recording to be a summation of Hammill's career to this point in time (1990). There is progressive rock (On the Surface), political/sociological commentary (Our Oyster, Evidently Goldfish), soul-searching ballads (A Way Out, No Moon in the Water) and a noisy one (Green Fingers). For the most part, arrangements are sparse. Which is great - the attention is on the lyrics and "THAT VOICE". David Jackson (from Van der Graaf Generator) puts in some tasty sax and flute licks on "Green Fingers" and "No Moon in the Water". "A Way Out" has become a concert favourite and it is very haunting. I just wished he would start playing "No Moon In The Water". God, is that a beautiful song!!
4.0 out of 5 stars

Quire unsung record from the british prog Lord.
Hammil fans will not get dissapointed. This is a memorable cd, not prog, A good amount of fine songs tough . If you are new to hammill, get Fireships first, then explore his decades of music to find what you like... |
