CD Reissue : Nick's first two solo CDs 'In Mirrored
Sky' and 'Music from Windows' are now out as a double
package and can be bought online
here. These two original albums plus 'Afterplanesman'
and the 'Devil's Fiddler' are now available for download
on iTunes.
Here is February's review in fRoots magazine :
NICK PYNN - IN MIRRORED SKY/MUSIC FROM WINDOWS
(Roundhill/ROUND 007).
"Two-for-one re-release of multi-instrumentalist's
first two albums from the mid-1990s. Pynn has an unerring
ear for a good melody, and backings by Herbie Flowers
et al. bring out the subtleties of the tracks. The extra
live tracks show that he can cut it on stage as well as
in the studio, and the whole package is a good introduction
to one of England's best instrumentalists and composers."
The new album with Arthur Brown is also out. It's called
'The Voice of Love' and is available online
here (includes excerpts). It's distributed in
the UK by Cadiz and features Nick having an enjoyable
time playing pretty much all the instruments. It will
be released in the US by Zoho in June '08.
Some public reviews of 'Opaque', Nick's very successful
Edinburgh show this year, can be found here
and the Glasgow Herald review here.
