Notting Hillbillies (Dire Straits) - LP
Varebeskrivelse
Stand: Brugt - men i god stand
"Missing... Presumably having a good time" -er sjælden LP, hvor 4 guitar ækvilibrister spiller en række herlige sange i blues/country genren. En lys, levende plade!
Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) lavede denne LP i 1990, mens Dire stadig var aktiv.
Han gik sammen med 3 andre guiitarister og Guy Fletcher (sang, key) -og på trommer er Dire Straits' manager!
Set på web til 200-400 kr, så dette er en god pris. Pladen gik topratings og nåede 2.pladsen i England.
(1990, Vertigo 842 671-I, cover/vinyl Ex)
Fra omslag: "Notting Hill er "en forstad i London vest, kendt for Portobello markedet og karnevallet". Hillbilly er enten "en usofistikeret person fra bjergene" eller "et andet navn for country & western".
In his review for AllMusic, Tom Demalon called the album "a low-key, joyous run-through of mostly traditional, blues-based songs with a handful of originals."Demalon continued:
"Despite the high-profile presence of Knopfler, the Notting Hillbillies succeed in sounding like a band with Knopfler often taking a backseat to his bandmates, although he does sing lead on the lovely "Your Own Sweet Way". The styles range from the gorgeous harmonies of "Railroad Worksong" with some mournful guitar from Knopfler, to the '50s-style rock ballad "Bewildered", to the breezy, tropical-flavored "One Way Gal".
Demalon concluded that Missing...Presumed Having a Good Time is a "delightful record that doesn't overstay its welcome."
