| When my great friend Peter Milton Walsh asked me if I'd pen him a spruik for the belated local Australian release of his latest Apartments' album No Song, No Spell, No Madrigal, I told him that nothing would give me more pleasure. And so I did, and so, further, since the grab you can see on the sheet below had to shear off my opening line for space reasons, I'll copy it here because I mean every word and you need to know: The roll-call of great Australian songwriters is long and illustrious, but Peter Milton Walsh, outrageously usually absent from this list, makes all of them - and I mean all of them, no exceptions - seem a bit glib, a bit pat. I exhort everyone to check out not only NSNSNM but the entire amazing Apartments' catalogue if you're not already familiar with it. Peter may be a cult legend in France, but he needs to be acknowledged in his homeland too. For more, go to the Apartments website HERE |
