The Third & Final Of Brian Bordello's Trilogy Of Acoustic Albums

Released on the same day that the Beatles debut Please Please Me was birthed in the studio

REVIEWS

Too many desire to be the next big thing, to appear on television shows, to have every word hung on to as if nothing else matters, what is needed more than ever is the authentic, the ability to believe in the Cardboard Box Beatle who proclaims an undeniable truth, and in Brian Bordello and the finale of trilogy that has been immensely revealing, the real is more validated, it is received with commitment.

LIVERPOOL SOUND AND VISION


Nobody captures the spirit of life in modern Britain with such deft, unwavering honesty as Brian Bordello. The private and personal observed in awkward detail and made universal. He is a rare thing - a genuine bonafide genius.

Across the decades, shoveling away with a kid’s cheap plastic spade – leftover from a northern beachside holiday many moons ago I envisage – at the music industry’s coalface, Brian has released his proclamations and wry wisdom in various guises and on a myriad of obscure labels. His latest album is for Metal Postcard Records (no strangers to this site; the “postcard” bit of that imprint the closest a fandom Brian will ever get to the original iconic Scottish label he adores) is about as basic as it gets: just an acoustic guitar, Brian’s wistful soft rasped voice, and the hum and slipping rubber band of what sounds like a Tascam four-track.

Striped back to the essentials, Brian encapsulates an array of displeasures like no one else can. Let’s just hope his music reaches the wider audience it deserves.
