Music reviews of Teddy Thompson
Music Review: A few exceptional songs
Rating: 3 Stars
I bought this CD on the strength of "Wake Up" which I thought was just a fantastic piece of song writing. The rest of the disk was a little underwhelming in the knock my socks off sense. But as with many albums repeated listening brings forth a few gems that I really, really like. "All we Said" and "So Easy" are very nice songs and have made it to my iTunes/iPod rotation. It's also a thrill to hear Richard Thompson's guitar work on several tracks. 3 stars is not a knock against this CD - I rarely ever give 5 stars to anything unless it is absolutely stellar.
Description of Teddy Thompson
Given the lullaby that Richard Thompson wrote to commemorate his son's birth ("There's nothing at the end of the rainbow / There's nothing to grow up for anymore"), Teddy Thompson turned out reasonably cheerful. True, when the British folk-rock legend's son sings "It's not so much that you left / It's that you didn't come back" on "A Step Behind," you can hear echoes of dad's droll delivery, melancholy modes, and waltz-time signatures. But Teddy's voice is sweeter than his pop's, whether crooning on the Crowded House-like "Wake Up," harmonizing with Rufus Wainwright on "So Easy," or even dropping allusions to letter bombs on the wry "Thanks a Lot." With tasteful musical assistance from producer Joe Henry's band (as well as Papa Richard), this eponymous debut is a low-key introduction to a rock offspring worth hearing. --Bill FormanGeneral CDs
