There are artists who take the time to make new music. Including Erin Moran, better known as A Girl Called Eddy. No less than 16 years after her , she comes with a successor and calls it teasingly Been Around. In the meantime, she still formed the supergroup The Last Detail with Fugu. On Been Around, Moran honors her heroes like Van Morrison and Steely Dan. The album sounds like it has been maturing
… for a while - from the 70s onwards - without getting stale or dated. The soulful sound goes hand in hand with the sultry voice of Moran, which comes out with a sharp tongue here and there. The singer-songwriter processes beautiful instrumental pieces, with wind instruments, piano or percussion, on this smooth album. (JvQ)more
