By
popular request Dada has released his
earliest recordings on CD for the first
time. Much loved for their innocence and
simplicity of spirit, these songs are
unabashedly devotional and deeply moving.
Musically it is very light – semi-acoustic,
featuring guitar, voices, occasional harp
and synth, with the odd rock number like
Song for Freedom with its stirring chorus
thrown in.
Like a secret childhood treasure being
re-discovered, this charming collection
of spiritual folk songs springs surprise
after delightful surprise on the listener.
The arrangements are relatively simple
and suit the mood of devotional innocence
perfectly. This is an album you’ll
come back to again and again. Enchanting.
Pure emotion channeled through music towards
the divine, it leaves a lasting impression.
