Autumn Ferment Rec. Casey Edward Denman : Songs for the Living and Songs for the Dead (UK,2011)**'
Only 200 picture cdrs were printed of this rather conceptual album, with 4 songs about what in a person's life is changing over time and what is not, about what is inherited and what becomes lost. I had to start over my listening a few times because I liked less the minor voice of the singer, and also the song melodies are similar to what I've heard before. In that way some of the tradition is already dead and so is the contemporary vision with it, other elements are something of the present. This is sad because with some of the nice pickings and jazzy bass on the first tracks this still doesn't come to that which is new,and does not discover the unique place, and still because it is expressed honestly it already points out its place. It doesn't solve it's own question.
