Album Review - Native Place by the Railway Children (1990)

 

Gary Newby, the front man of The Railway Children had a voice you wanted to eat strawberries from. It was the beauty of a crystalline note perfect nature. This clean essence was also accentuated by the sheer clarity of the accompanying jangled chiming hooks and melodies, that effectively made them the favourite band of discerning youngsters who appreciated musical substance over the era's rapacious attention to vogue...it was music for those who let themselves enjoy all that could be pure and sweet.
