The Kiss of Morning
Graham Coxon
|
A London purchase, at the time of this writing only available on
import. Best known for being Blur's ex-guitarist, Graham Coxon leaves no
doubt in my mind that Blur just isn't going to sound that good without him
on the stregth of this amazing fourth solo album. Deliberately jagged
edges and an air of desperation contribute nicely to the emotional
honesty. "Locked Doors" rolls along with the help of some seriously
snazzy piano, while "Baby, You're Out of Your Mind" manages to be
achingly beautiful and incredibly twisted at the same time. "Just Be
Mine" is similarly deceptive, this time with a touch of Tex-Mex
flavor. Just exactly what I'd expect from the quiet one.
