annieander - Robyn Hitchcock...

I have 'Perspex Island' but that's it. I appreciated his songwriting talent but his music wasn't unusual enough to keep my interest. He's a very underrated musician though & has put out a buttload of albums.

What? No stream of "More Than This," his cover of the gorgeous Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music song? (Just keeding, annie. Quite a bounty on this thread!)

Aug - Stew is the main connoisseur of Hitchcock around the house...I listen to him thru osmosis. Funny, when I started posting, I though "oh, I like that one, and that one too..." I didn't think I would find this many to post that I know and love.

Mike - Are you kidding? Did he do a cover of that? Are you pulling my leg?

No lie, annie. Bee-you-ti-ful take on a lovely song. Seek it out, and ye shall find the glory...

I love Robyn Hitchcock...I saw him a couple of times, with Sean Nelson opening for him. Great shows, both.
