| Recommendation of the
month (November): Aviv Geffen is a big star in his native Israel,
and a controversial one too given his anti-war stance. His song "It's
Cloudy Now" became something of an anthem for disaffected youth in the 1990s. But in
English-speaking countries, he is best known for Blackfield, his recent
collaboration with Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson. This eponymous album is his debut, English-language solo album and features both original material and a new version of "It's Cloudy Now". About half of the album was produced by Trevor Horn (see Yescography for details), who also plays bass on three songs. Familiar Horn associates also perform, like drummer Ash Soan (ex-Rick Wakeman), while Steven Wilson guests on three tracks, and Roger McGuinn does on one. However, it's Geffen himself who plays most of the instruments and wrote all the material. Less political than some of his earlier work, Aviv Geffen is a set of modern, indie rock, love songs, with a sound that will be familiar to fans of Blackfield. |
