同名主打歌曲skybound,从开头神秘中东风中慢慢席卷而来紧凑的有力吉他声,到中段大量钢琴铺奏,到最后的各种乐器的混合 演奏直至顶峰,好似挣脱枷锁,让人酣畅淋漓的在天空尽情遨游!
另一首better听来却这样的感性,在tom baxter真挚的声音中一次一次地攻陷你心中最柔软的地方,一股股暖流安抚着你脆弱的心灵。
It's been three years since we heard anything from Tom Baxter. His 2004 release
Feather and Stone, especially its opening track My Declaration, was a Radio Two
favourite, but since then, not a sausage. Now comes Skybound, an
autobiographical album, which shows off his angelic, dreamy voice with an
eclectic mix of sounds and styles.
A woody guitar, double bass and a bluesy, jazz beat, with Baxter's trademark
orchestral accompaniment, introduces us to Skybound with A Night Like This. His
voice is rich, natural and soulful, with his stretched high notes oozing
passion.
His great singing is shown off in all its glory throughout the album, none so
more than the title track. Its classical, Spanish guitar picking sits delicately
with a light piano, brought to life with the beautiful strings.
