New album from John Illsley
« on: April 07, 2014, 05:12:32 PM »
Hi!

John Illsey is releasing his new album Testing the Water this year. Seems that Guy is involved, in addition to Robbie McIntosh... Is the footage from British Grove?

reading on John's website about his forthcoming tour...it seems he has jumped on the bandwagon of playing old DS songs similar to the leg-ends and the straits.... :disbelief

He's always been playing Straits songs, err, I mean DS songs on his solo tours.

What do you mean  ???

In his previous mini tours he had always played DS songs, with more or les fortune, so he had not jumped from anywhere, he was there before The Straits or the DSLegends...

I really enjoy his recent solo work. Laidback songs, nothing pretentious, not easy-listening but easy to listen to...

Never liked his voice when solo singing. Only background. Same goes with Guy by the way. I love the music of his both solo albums but have some trouble to get used to his singing especially on the second record.

his 2 fisrt albums soudn a littlle bit dated 80ies imho, but I like very much streets of heaven

songs like Toe the line, I thought I saw it coming, Big Top, Foreign land are ones I would like to hear on a MK album, musicwise I mean

it has this laidback-on-the-road-american flavour I miss on late Mak's solo work
