Music reviews of Split Coconut

Music Review: A melodic treat full of great guitar and harmonies
Rating: 4 Stars

I originally bought this album on vinyl from Virgin Records in Birmingham back in the seventies when it was first released. I'd seen Dave Mason on the Old Grey Whistle Test (cult British TV music show) and decided to check out his music. I was very pleasantly surprised by the catchy melodies incorporated in the songs on this album. Dave's vocals have a certain poignancy and sincerity, and when the vocal harmonies of both Crosby and Nash and the Manhattan Transfer join in, then you're guaranteed an aural treat. Add to this the fluid guitar playing that is Mason's trademark, and you have a damn fine record.

The two standout tracks for me are "Give me a reason why", which you won't stop humming, and "Long lost friend", which builds to a stirring guitar-filled finish. A spledid version of Buddy Holly's "Crying, Waiting and Hoping" is also worthy of note. If you want a classy, easy on the ear album full of catchy melodies, buy this !
