March 28th, 2001,
Robin O'brien (& David Mitros).
Added associations : Amy K, Basque, Spacefairy, Stormclouds.
I once bought the wonderful and beautiful album "Trees of Life" from Robin and David. Years I was looking for more items, for contact with the duo. Finally I found Robin on the net. Very happy I am now able to make a full program dedicated to this wonderful singer Robin and also to the fine instrumentalist David Mitros. The music can be described as very dreamy. Most recommended is "Tree of Life", one of my favourite dreamy albums (and top 100 albums). Secondly best from the items I know might be "The flowering",... Here some of the covers of played items :

The guitar sounds here more primitive (more high tones, a bit harsh) due to the kind of recording I guess ? Once you get over the surprise of the difference it's clear this makes the recording less dreamy, but more bluesy any how. Good compilation of her songs !

Bob Theil's first opinion : "Her voice sound too flat, but her songs are ok"
"Now hearing the cdr I realised there was something wrong with the tape and tape speed. No, I really like this"
