I'm glad too, because I am getting sick and tired of reviewing established musicians and having nothing to say but 'basically, they're past it'.

Slow and measured, it might take a little time like you say, but it's bloody worth it. Even the 10-minute tracks don't seem too long. He rules. This album really reminds me of his first album.

He and Jarvis Cocker recently performed a lovely duet on TV program called <i>The Music Instinct</i>, which is about music and cognition. The show appeared on American public TV, which is always Anglophilic, but I'm not sure if this was originally an American or British production. Anyway, gorgeous. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/musicinstinct/video/performance/jarvis-cocker-and-richard-hawley/16/ I don’t really know much about Richard Hawley, although I’ve liked what little I’ve heard.
