Sun's Signature
2022
Partisan Records
Elizabeth Fraser and her partner Damon Reece took their time, almost twenty years all in, making this brief album, along with prog legend and guitarist Steve Hackett. There’s a brief taste of trip-hop in the opener, but this album looks decidedly backwards, towards Beatles-indebted psychedelia, and English itself (which Fraser sings in this time). If you imagine a lost, slower XTC album, you have an idea of the setting. Fraser is herself, if slightly subdued. I just wish it was longer.
