Allan Taylor - The American Album (1973/2022) [Official Digital Download]

Allan is considered to be one of the music scene’s great guitarists, creating during his stage performance a distinctive rich and mellow sound, and with a voice that speaks of a life-time of travel he can make each song a vignette of life, like a story told over a drink in a bar. His songs have an integrity that tell you they come from something real, where characters come to life as people you know and places become as familiar as if you had been there. When this happens, you know it’s an Allan Taylor concert.

"If you can reflect fondly on the days of village folk festivals, fresh flower hair-pieces, side burns and waistcoats you are going to love this album. Relax, dim the lights, crack open a bottle of good wine and fire up the incense sticks. You are about to experience a toe tapping, thought provoking, even sing- along trip back to the mid 70's. This combination album offers a varied selection of fine tunes from the Allan Taylor typical true folk-mania melancholy, to the mystic up beat, almost dance-friendly, 'wanna escape the folk scene' sounds of Cajun Moon. An eclectic range of songs married on one album that actually work together. Like many folk albums this one will ease you in and out of ebullient and somber moments, and will no doubt help you create a good deal of reflective energy. If you fancy a trip back to the young, free and easy days of the mid 70's and appreciate good folk music buy a copy of this double album."
