专辑简介
A rootsy "New Folk" CD of original songs with traditional country, blues, bluegrass, and folk-rock influences featuring Ed Alkalay's deep baritone voice, polished guitar and banjo playing, and poignant lyrics.
Already garnering significant airplay and critical acclaim, Turning Dorian Gray features a wide variety and styles of music. Lyrically, the CD strikes on diverse emotions.
In "A Better Version of Me", the lyrics empahtically state: "I can stand being loved/I can stand being hated/But Lord I can't deal with being replaced". While in "With the Devil in My Band", Ed strikes on theme close to all musicians' hearts - selling their soul to the devil for fame: "The Devil looked at me with that same devilish grin/He said 'Eddie boy, I never ever met a musician who wouldn't trade his soul for a life of sin". While in "Marie," the theme of incomprehensible loss permeates: "Perhaps a thousand years from now, her eyes I'll not see/ Her touch not feel/ her breath not breathe".
All in all, the CD is a "must buy" for those interested in acoustic music.
