Edwyn Collins

Any fans of this guy?, i really like his string of solo albums before he had his stroke, quite soulful, funky and quirky, not really what you'd expect from a white Scotsman. Very talented musician in my opinion.

We're here, might as well get into it.

I have much of his music and read the book, Falling and Laughing, written by his partner Grace.

His Dr Syntax album is always on my ipod as is much of GG.

Luv the way that crescendos.

Honorable mention also goes to the Edwyn Collins produced Little Barrie. Tight rock-funk act outta London. His contributions to their catalog are parallel to Elvis Costello's contributions to The Specials catalog. Truly a beautiful partnership.
