Customer Reviews of Fog on the Tyne
It grows on you...! This English folk-rock act, featuring singer-songwriter Alan Hull, was one of the big pop successes in the post-Beatles, progadelic era of the early 1970s. This was their second album, and their biggest commerical hits, improbably cracking into the British Top Ten based on the strength of the bouncy single that lent the album its title. Not really that "trad," for the most part this album is a dreamy, drifty acoustic psych-folk exploration, much along the lines of the Incredible String Band, or the early albums by the Dransfield Brothers. Often the lyrics are embarassingly hippie-dippy, yet the album will grow on you, particularly the hit, "Fog On The Tyne," which is the kind of tune that sticks in your mind for hours if you hear it play just before you walk out the door to run errands. A goofy, but unassuming and sweetly naive acoustic prog album... worth checking out!
A Classic Album
I can't understand why the two guys above could rate that work only 4 stars. There are very few albuns of any kind of musical styles or genres with a set of strong compositions like this one. All songs from "Fog on The Tyne" - except the bonus tracks -are great.
"Meet Me On The Corner", "January Song", "Peter Brophy Don't Care", "City Song" and the title song are all classics songs. And so is the other songs: inspired and catchy melodies in beautiful arrangments. A true masterpiece. I'd wish to speak english to tell how splendid is that album, in a better way and words. Only a very few albuns in the pop/folk/rock history deserve the 5 stars. This is, obviously, one of them.
lindisfarne Folk Rock Heroes
This is a great album ... Good old geordie Folk rock. Down sides a) its not enhanced b) its sooo short.... 34 minutes even with 2 bonus tracks ( - the record company should add this with Nicely out of tune and it makes a good length CD). No bad songs - of course there are no fillers as its so short. I remember the band from the 70s and loved them then...Peter Borphy don't care is a classic. Buy it second hand - at least you will feel you are getting some quantity for the cost and are not getting ripped off
