David William - One Way Ticket

UK import..and a great one! Fans of the awesome, heavenly sounds of Neil Finn and Crowded House will absolutely go weak-knee`d hearing David William`s "One Way Ticket". Evidence, well much of the entire record but jump down and listen to "Run Rabbit Run" and "One Way Ticket" below. Listen. It`s all this wonderful. Fans of Cotton Mather, Kevin Gilbert/Toy Matinee, Squeeze and The Rembrandts will have a similar warm display of deeply-well springed thanks, as well. Why? Sharply crafted, silky smooth melodies, sublime hooks that quake the soul and warmly sung vocals in the Finn-vein. The whole album brims with gorgeous songs, soulful vocals, feather-light rhythms and passionate spirit that is not over-wrought or desperate. There`s a George Harrison-feel on some other songs here, which would explain the fact that "One Way Ticket" is very comfortable in its own shoes.

"Edinburgh, Scotland`s David William proves he has the pop goods with his extraordinary debut album One Way Ticket. If I didn`t know better (and I suppose I truly don`t), I`d swear this was Neil Finn putting out an album under a pseudonym. Not only does William sound like Finn (at least as much as anybody this side of Shane Nicholson), his songs have the effortless pop grace of Finn`s best work." - absolutepowerpop.blogspot.com. Just stunning and very, very much Extremely Highly Recommended!
