Eleanor McEvoy - Early Hours (2004) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

‘Early Hours’ takes Eleanor McEvoy’s music to new heights. Couched now in a mature jazz/blues context, her melodic and sensitive songs – packed as ever with wry, insightful social observation – benefit from first rate performances. “It would be a tragedy given the exquisite understated magnificence and warmth of these 42 minutes if all Eleanor McEvoy were remembered is ‘fl Woman’s Heart”. Eleanor’s Dido-before-Dido voice and some of the best happy/sad songs she has ever written plus deconstructed classics by Chuck Berry and Bert Jansch, this is her ‘White Ladder’, her ‘Life for Rent’. a triumph. MOJO. The appeal of early hours lies in it’s basic folk-roots simplicity, nothing is allowed to get in the way of the songs. Like good food McEvoy’s music requires no garnish. ” MAVERICK… The key word here is luxury because that is the musical feeling that this album creates. Make no mistake, this is an outstanding piece of musicianship. BBC RADIO 2 While Thea Gilmore gets all the attention, the similarly gifted Eleanor McEvoy has been busy honing a far-more affecting brand of singer-songwriterly femme-folk… imbued with the beauty of Judie Tzuke and the wordplay of Suzanne Vega. That’s a pantheon that McEvoy is eminently qualified to join, now is the time for it to happen. ― Amazon
