"Kevin Ayers is wonderful. Hedonistic, charming,and soft-spoken. He sings like he's letting you in on a secret (or playing a joke on you!) His songs are inspiring / witty / weird / melodious.If you haven't heard him yet, this wouldn't be the worst place to start.It's a great CD. It captures 4 different sessions with Kevin Ayers, with three different bands backing him: The Soft Machine, The Whole World, and his Banana Follies cohort Archie Leggit.In this way, it gives a good overview of early 70s Kevin. The second half of the CD (with Archie Leggit) is particularly enlightening. They make one of the most rocking duos you'll ever hear (bass and guitar)! There's a great reading of Falling in Love again that you have to hear!"
