The Time Of The Foxgloves (LP)
Michael Hurley
Amoeba Review
Folk music icon Michael Hurley returns with his first studio album in twelve years, the evocatively titled Time of the Foxgloves. The album has a timeless, homespun quality, with banjos, fiddles, pump organ, acoustic slide guitar, upright bass, bass clarinet, baritone ukulele, and harmony singers. Listening is a transportive experience; you’ll swear Hurley’s crooning from just across the room, during a time span that could be anywhere from 1920 to 1960 to now. They don’t make ‘em like they used to…except for when Michael Hurley’s familiar, gritty vocals emanate from your turntable.
