专辑简介

bob rylett -- this Canadian-born neo-folk singer is either a genius of timing or a shameless opportunist. his latest cd, American dreams, comes with old glory splayed across the cover and contains Dylan-esque devotions to lady liberty and the American way. oddly enough, the formula mostly works, with rylett summoning Springsteen's angst and Shawn Mullins' habit of half-talking through his art. creative loafer magazine(butler)Atlanta Georgia

The "jukebox with a smile", Bob Rylett is a prototype of the great Canadian singer/songwriters before him.As a storyteller he is prolific and dangerous,surprisingly honest and insatiably curious about life, he sings of lust filled angels and repenting devils. He sings of peace with a knife and the cowardly bully. He sings of revenge against teachers and preachers and chance. He sings of lust and life and loss and luck. He sings of the love of truth and the lies of hate.He sings about you and about me. He concerns and cajoles, he angers and amuses. Each song is the flash of life before your eyes, at the moment of your birth. Each song is the deja vu that sends you reeling.Each song the moment you first met yourself. Each song is a warm reminder. With 7 albums behind him (including American Dreams, Questions,Riddles and Rhymes,Its All Gone and Carnivale) and the release of his newest album "Wings of a Rusty Soul" Bob Rylett has been called "a genius of timing" and "Dylanesque with the angst of Springsteen". He studies his masters so comparisons with Cohen ,Young, and Lightfoot always follow him around as do the high expectations he has for himself and for you. Discover this gem, this big dreaming 21st century troubadour with the heart to match.
