Our pick of the albums reviewed on these pages during the past seven days is Other You, the latest from Steve Gunn – revisit the review and check out the album via Spotify.
“Steve Gunn has spoken before about the narrow virtues of believing in a simpler life: ‘I just wanna be this guy with my guitar, travelling around,’ he revealed in a 2019 interview, responding to a question about the financial pressures of being a low-profile act in a world of competing noise.”
“The Philadelphian was speaking after the release of The Unseen In Between, his fifth album and one as full of introspection lyrically as it was of tunes, a masterclass which hinted that an unlikely tangle with the mainstream was a real possibility.”
“For Gunn though, life is still better consumed at your pace, and on the face of it Other You is far from revolutionary in terms of adding to his canon.”
