Editorial Reviews

Celebrated australian musician, Mick Harvey returns with his enthralling new album, 'two of diamonds'. Encouraged by the very positive critical acclaim and the audience reaction to the live shows for his 2005 lp 'one man's treasure', harvey - an internationally renowned arranger, producer, multi instrumentalist, film soundtrack composer and co-founder of the birthday party and nick cave and the bad seeds - has created a further wonderful collection of classic songs. This time harvey is accompanied by his solo band, featuring rosie westbrook (double bass) and fellow bad seeds' james johnston (organ and guitar) and thomas wydler (drums). Guest musicians on two tracks also include rob ellis from p.j. harvey's band (piano/drums), and julitha ryan (piano) from melbourne instrumental band silver ray.

I bought the Mick Harvey CD after hearing "Out of Time" at the end of a Breaking Bad episode. Out of time is a solid tune and I would say there are about four other solid tunes on the CD, but there are a number of throw aways. It's worth getting for the gems, but this is not a CD that I'm raving about.

While this was primarily purchased for the sing "Out of Time Man," which was featured on the AMC Series 'Breaking Bad, nearly all of the CD is very good if you are into a melancholy funk. The CD has become a favorite, consistently finding it's way to the player in my car and in our home 2 channel system since purchasing. The recording quality is pretty good, perhaps 4 stars, but very acceptable. Finally, the purchasing transaction was seamless.
