Raging Twilight Album Launch 7July, 2017 – Review by Paul Kerr, Blabber ‘n’ Smoke
‘Jack Law and his henchmen turned in a fine performance to a capacity crowd in the Southside’s Glad Cafe last Friday as they presented their first album to the public. The album, reviewed here, is a fine collection of songs with a definite American bent with many of Law’s lyrics inspired by recent trips to The States. Indeed they opened with the most evocative song from the album, Iron Way, which was delivered with a great arrangement, bar room piano and mouth harp summoning up the south west with a Morricone tint. It was a great start but the band followed this with some of their jauntier numbers with folk and blues more to the fore as on second number Nothing’s There while the mandolin driven Old Glass Jar and the skiffle/jugband like Dust Bowl Rust Belt Blues were real crowd pleasers.’
