What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Phil feeling happy.

Tinhorn Companion Volume 1 CD by Continental Film Night/ Tellerman. The enormous shout of 'WHO?' I can hear is deafening... and you'd be right in not having a clue about this. So here's a bit of info. It's a new project by David Sheppard and some other folks who you probably won't have heard of. This immediately caught my ear with it's beautiful layered melodies. At times I thought it sounded quite a bit like some of the Phelan Sheppard stuff but I was reminded by John Parish's old side project White Hotel (many moons ago and they were ace!). It's very filmic sounding and is one for you folks who like you music gorgeous and atmospheric. At times I was reminded of some of the latter Piano Magic stuff.... Excellent! My only criticism is that's it's too short and seeing as though it's a full price album you may have a feeling of being ripped off being that it clocks in at just under 25 minutes. Things like this certainly aren't helping the downward spiral of physical music sales. Still it's a strong release and worth checking out if you're feeling flush.

What the label says:

WHAT? Six track mini-album. Latest project of London's David Sheppard of ELLIS ISLAND SOUND. David is currently finishing his giant biography of BRIAN ENO and playing live with the Ellis Island Sound Orchestra. It is highly filmic music, adult (in the best sense), atmospheric, dark chansonnier, made with guitars, lutes, cellos, brass, in primary colours and sophisticated grain. Tinhorn Home Companion Library Volume One is a luxury label showreel, the first of many sharp and thoughtful projects to come from a new, independent label project called TINHORN. WHO? CONTINENTAL FILM NIGHT: Javier Martí (Valencia-based talent discovered by Sheppard and erstwhile of the Spanish group MUDO)Peter Wix (Jean Paul Special) David Sheppard (Ellis Island Sound; Phelan Sheppard; State River Widening; Wisdom of Harry). TELLERMAN: Peter Wix (Jean Paul Special. Ex-Londoner based in Madrid. This is his solo songwriting project) WHERE? Recorded in Spain. Anglo-Spanish project. Unashamedly independent. WILL MOVE: Fans of film and soundtrack music, Nino Rota, Charles Delerue, Serge Gainsbourg, Can, Will Oldham, Nick Drake, Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Kurt Weill, Burt Bacharach, Jim O' Rourke, Leonard Cohen, Roxy Music, ...
