Review

Reissue of Midnight Choir´s debut album, recorded in Fredericksburg/Texas in 1994 and produced by Andrew Hardin, guitar player for Tom Russell (amongst others). While it is surprising for a norwegian band to record in Texas it also makes a lot of sense, because Midnight Choir was highly influenced by Texas music and Americana at the time. So we have Paal Flaata´s magic voice floating through American roots music, some of it written by others: Gene Clark´s 'Gypsy Rider' seems tailormade for Flaata´s voice, 'Turning Of Tide' (Richard Thompson) is American-ized and 'Hearts Gone Wild' by Katy Moffatt & Tom Russell gets a nice treatment. But they were also already finding their own style, with three gorgeous sundown-in-the-death-valley-style ballads that came at the end of this disc, :'Mercy On The Street', 'Lonesome Drifter' and 'Lift Me Up'. Glitterhouse Records.
