Customer Reviews
Just Listen.....
Comparisons to David Gray would be valid if this album was by Elton John. Luckilly, it is not.
Ordinary Joe is a dance classic, not croontastic. And it's fantastic.
Callier has a body of work which can make you dance, or make you stop in your tracks.
Remember what Urban Species said when they sampled Candyman - Just Listen!
a beautifull soulfull folk album
the cloudbusting croontastic opening track, Ordinary Joe, a tune that somehow remains an absolute classic only for the lucky few who know about it, (I get the feeling that sooner or later it will go mainstream and be playing on out radios every day forevermore) gives way to a beautifull soulfull folk album I initially treated as a bonus to Ordinary Joe.
Very similar, and just as good as Davis Greys White Ladder yet 30 years old
Early Terry Callier all but ignored when first released.
This gem was first released in the U.S. as an LP on the Cadet Label in the '70's. At the time, TC was writing songs for a number of Chicago groups, most notable penning the Dell's hit, "The Love We Had Stays On My Mind". He was also involved with the group Rotary Connection whose alumni include Minnie Riperton and Phil Upchurch. Occasional Rain is the first of his three Cadet LP's which have been reissued on CD. TC is an incredible songwriter/storyteller and truly shines on the longer cuts. His "Trance on Sedgewick Street" is a classic. For those of you familiar with TC's current work and want to get a sense of the man's talent thirty years ago, then by all means listen to his early work. Like a fine wine, the man and his music just keep getting better with time.
