Insight
One of the more listenable pop/rock albums of the year has been put out by a young Canadian lad from Saskatchewan. Lorence Hud is the man responsible, and Mr. Hud is a man of many talents. Not only has he written all the songs and sings them, but he plays all the instruments, too - guitars, piano, drums, harmonica, saxophone, organ, piano, even a glockenspiel.
His music is middle-of-the-road rock, much in the manner of a Terry Jacks (Hud also sounds quite a bit like Jacks - clear, pleasant, wholesome). Best cuts are a beautiful ballad called 'Someone I Know', and engaging story song called 'Master of Pantomime (which is reminiscent of Jerry Jeff Walker's 'Mr Bojangles') and the very personal 'Lost in the Crowd'. But all the songs are good; well-constructed, intelligently written, gentle rocking, lyrical.
It's an unusual - and very good album by a very talented young Canadian.
