Reviews and Commentaries for the Music of Donovan
The sound here is GLORIOUS — rich, sweet, Tubey Magical and very, very Analog.
Side one is where you will find The Hurdy Gurdy Man and it is crazy good sounding here. No wonder: Hurdy Gurdy was engineered by Eddie Kramer and produced by none other than John Paul Jones.
Donovan records tend to be hit or miss affairs, but we were pleasantly surprised to find that we could not find a bad track on either side of the album. Most are in fact quite wonderful. Both Yellow Label Epics and Orange Label Epics fared well in our shootout.
Some of these tracks may remind you more than a little of Pentangle. Danny Thompson, that band&#;s amazingly talented and unusually well recorded double bassist, just happens to be the bass player on the album. Go figure. Tony Carr does most of the drumming as he has on many of Donovan&#;s albums from the period. Needless to say, the rhythm section is first rate.
