Kane, Philip
Flowers & Ledges
Philip Kane (ex vocalist of Avalanche) is the nom de plume of educationalist, columnist and author, Phil Beadle. Flowers and Ledges is his third album. His 'Songs for Swinging Lovers' was described as "a ragged graceful revelation" in Uncut and reviewed by Rolling Stone as "a stunning collection of neo soul songs. Throughout this album of music, the Kane vocal strides tall and flies free, hitting its mark and luxuriating in its lines about socialism and sensibility. Around it, musicians of dazzling proficiency, tenderness and imagination stroke its ego, straighten its tie and loosen its belt, telling it that its hair looks fabulous. >>
