Nothing about \u003ci\u003eStarsailor\u003c\/i\u003e is remotely \"alternative\"; cool dads will appreciate them every bit as much as the hip kids. Not only is tender-aged singer James Walsh proud to admit to being influenced by Van Morrison and Tim Buckley (blimey, it's like punk never happened), he is also gifted with a larynx as gnarled, emotionally articulate, and demonstratively tremulous as the underrated Roger Chapman. \u003ci\u003eLove Is Here\u003c\/i\u003e is an assured classic, whose exposition of impending mid-life crises and buttoned-up desperation (typical lyric: \"I need to be alone while I suffer\") is conveyed through shuffling jazz percussion, metronomic acoustic guitars, and keyboards that veer between decorative cocktail piano and ice rink organ (courtesy of former crematorium organist Barry Westhead). Are Starsailor the future of British pop? Let's bloody hope so. \u003ci\u003e--Kevin Maidment\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 018111103527\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0724353644826\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45933002817570,"sku":"B0-JCD6-TJ7J","price":10.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/41BB01R7SZL.jpg?v=1783579175","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/starsailor-love-is-here-cd","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
