Olivier Group: Super Admins Posts: 1868 Joined: Nov. 1999 Posted: Sep. 03 2007, 11:58 The Daily Telegraph has published an article about Kevin Ayers' The Unfairground, his first solo album in 15 years. Jimi Hendrix, Syd Barrett, Robert Wyatt, Brian Eno, Elton John and Mike Oldfield are mentioned in the notes about his career. Thanks, Chris Simmons. Back to top

I have some Kevin Ayers albums (most of the old work and with the Whole World), so I really wonder how this new album will sound! -------------- -The mark of a good musician is to play one note and mean it- Mike Oldfield - 1980 Back to top

Just listening to the samples of this album on Amazon, and I have to say, it's amazing how this sounds almost exactly like the stuff from the early 70s that is all I've heard of his before. As much as I appreciate what Kevin has done for Mike, and as much as Shooting at the Moon has been a part of my musical life... I can't really see myself listening to this more than once, sorry Kevin. Back to top
