CD ReviewsAny New Robyn is a Good Robyn! Jill Harris | 46032 | 01/22/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "This album is definately the pared-down, sparce, and hauntingly beautiful persona of Robyn Hitchcock...most closely what you get at an acoustic show. While it may be a bit uneven, and you might not LOVE every song, as with every other Robyn and Soft Boys album this one does contain many (call it 5 of the 13 tracks - "The Idea of You," "Maria Lyn," and "Idonia" especially) absolute masterpieces! And, nearly every song has at least a few amazing moments or lyrics that keep the banality of todays music at bay. I am so thankful that there is a Robyn Hitchcock in the world, and that he is continuing to make the wonderful, quirky, and utterly unique music that he does. This album still is a must for fans, and soon-to-be fans, alike!" This is the low point. Hopefully. uglydoris | NEw Orleans, LA | 12/17/2004 (1 out of 5 stars) "I own every RH ablum relaesed and several test prints that were never released. Let's just say I have a lot of his work. This, however, is not some of it. Everytime I listen to this, I feel like this is a CD of someone doing a bad Robyn Hitchcock impersonation. The lyrics are trite, which for him, is the worse thought I've ever had, and the melodies are somewhat weak. I am still a ravenous RH fan and will continue to be. This album though, is far below the stratospheric standars he set with Eye, Respect, Storefront and just about everything he's ever done. In fact, this isn't even as nice as Invisible Hitchcock, which was a series of B-Sides and unreleased songs. Buy every album he's ever made and you will not be disappointed, just don't let this be the first." Never listen to it bobaloo | new york city | 05/31/2005 (2 out of 5 stars) "like the reviewer below, i'm a massive fan of hitchcock--but i never ever hardly ever haul this out: there's the real test of a record. it's dour, sans sparkles or a "vibe." never thought he'd made a bad record till i heard this. hardly any floaty melodies, either. get "Spooked"--it's brilliant and lively.
