Vacation In The Past

 

I have been following Robyn Hitchcock's work for years and he has always managed to inspire me with his small and intimate songs. Maybe some people remember him from around 1980 when he became famous with the Soft Boys and their own interpretation of folk and psychedelic. 

Now he himself has travelled back in time to 1967 to record songs by bands that inspired him at the time. Mostly songs that were in the charts at the time and are now reinterpreted by him in a new acoustic style. Anything but groundbreaking, but performed with a love for the songs that should not really allow any comparison with the originals. A sentimental journey back to times when many things were different, which I enjoyed accompanying.
