Title: David Gray's Babylon and Beyond
Product review: David Gray is a wonderful talent I just discovered from the U.K. Somehow I'm not surprised that someone this good and this talented was forced to cut the album himself in his own flat and then release it himself. It is a sad commentary on the music industry that those who "self-publish" deliver a better product musically. Gray was deservedly up for a Grammy with the single track of "Babylon" on this disc. Once you hear it, it is almost impossible to turn off. In fact, hubby has started complaining because I play and replay and play it again so frequently. If I had to pick another artist who reminds me of Gray, it would be James Taylor. Gray is more original than Taylor though as the work is all solely his whereas Taylor relies heavily on songwriters, such as the late Laura Nyro for his biggest hits.
