Sunglass

SunglassA very strange album, this, but it has a kind of hypnotic appeal to me. Most of the numbers are very slow, acoustic, and at best are mesmerising. The “group” consists of Simon Honisett and Penny Hewson, with occasional guest players, and the production values are low-tech, maybe barely a step above the Finn Brothers’ debut album (you can’t hear most of the tape hiss), but the sameness of most of the songs may lose Sunglass some points with some listeners. On the good side, the lyrics are often interesting, and there are 3 out of 4some interesting vocals – Penny Hewson sometimes comes across sounding a little like Julee Cruise.
