Rick Berlin - "Me & Van Gogh"
After a career in elaborate cabaret-rock bands
like Orchestra Luna and Berlin Airlift, Rick Berlin
has peeled away all the glitz and stage makeup
to reveal the naked beauty of "Me & Van
Gogh". An absolutely brilliant collection
of heartfelt tunes, containing stories of sluts,
Buddhas and beerbellies, that might reminds you
of early Randy Newman or Tom Waits(think "Martha")
but would only point you in the general direction
of the special place that this kind of material
deserves. It would be "Criminal" if
this record doesn't get the attention it deserves.
