The Big Eyes LP is one of my faves. Sounds like music that you should be hearing outside a cafe in Paris or something with accordians and other such lovelyness. We Have No Need For Voices is most excellent indeed. !!Perhaps the most musically varied of all their releases, ‘WHNNFVWOHCS’ sees Big Eyes loosening their belts somewhat, with a collection of full-on chamber pieces, country mules, polkas and plainsongs. There are the precise baroque arrangements of ‘Spidersong’ and ‘On Twigs’, the American folk of ‘David’s Lovesong’ and ‘At Claydon Point’, the graceful string fugues of ‘Podsley’s Lullaby’ and ‘A Second Heavy Heart’, and the atonal meanderings of ‘Wash Me Upstream’ and ‘Drunken Ghost Dance’. The album also includes a collaboration with the multi-instrumentalist Terry Edwards (ex-Tindersticks, Gallon Drunk), in the form of ‘Bugle Junior’, on which he plays flugelhorns.
