Normoton    (The Sound of) Baily : The Way that things are done (UK,2006)***°

Immedialely I noticed the very nice sound of the guitar, of which is played in favour of the sounds which its rich body adds to the melody. Besides that also the singer has a pleasant warm voice. There are sparse arrangements added of glockenspiel, piano, melodica and mellotron, and an occasional second lalala vocalist. The songs use understandable gentle lyrics. They are sung with a distinguished level of dignity to its expressions. David Bailey's guitar playing compositions are almost classical, which help him to make that distinguished style into an art form, while the songs are rather directly communicative and expressive.
