Ross (3282 KP) rated Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen in Music
Jul 8, 2020
Rolling Stone's 18th greatest album of all time
Decent Springsteen album, vying with Born in the USA to be his best. This listen was poisoned a little for me as some of my neighbours have had occasional parties during lockdown where the title track has been played at full volume with accompanying drunken "singing" at 2am (though this was annoying, it was followed by the sound of utter confusion when they next played the album version of Bat Out of Hell, with the piano solo and several minutes of extra avant garde music and an extra verse they weren't expecting). A decent listen.

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Hellespont by Simon Herron in Music
Jul 11, 2019
Yes, this is in some ways the soul of Damien Rice, but there is something plaintive about the entire song that strikes a note Rice never hit. Sure, I'm a sucker for the one note piano melody; we have a lot of that, and some extra intervals, but the mark of this song for me is the pony-slow walk of the timpani, the subtle sway of the violins, and the perfectly precise acoustic strums.
If this song were a painting, it would be a piece by Gauguin with those swirling fields of yellow flowers, in his own Hellespont of Arles - which some say is the only place he ever felt at home.

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Happiness by Callum Pitt in Music
Jul 11, 2019
Callum Pitt comes to us from Newcastle Upon Tyne, England, where he sits by the river and strums his guitar, whispering sweet nothings into the belly of the wind. His new single is a must-listen called simply Happiness.
It's a Disney-style romp through meadows of arpeggiated bells and jangly guitars, with a deep gentle swing and a little cowboy piano for good measure. Lately the BBC has taken an interest in Callum and we think his star is on the rise. He is building on the fanbase he connected with in 2016 with a spot at Evolution Emerging Festival.
You can also hear his song Happiness on Volume 2 of the CHILL NEW Songwriters series.
