More Info:
Celebrated Australian musician, Mick Harvey returns with his enthralling new album, 'two of diamonds'. Encouraged by the very positive critical acclaim and the audience reaction to the live shows for his 2005 LP 'one man's treasure', Harvey - an internationally renowned arranger, producer, multi instrumentalist, film soundtrack composer and co-founder of the birthday party and nick cave and the bad seeds - has created a further wonderful collection of classic songs. This time Harvey is accompanied by his solo band, featuring Rosie Westbrook (double bass) and fellow bad seeds' James Johnston (organ and guitar) and Thomas Wydler (drums). Guest musicians on two tracks also include Rob Ellis from P.J. Harvey's band (piano/drums), and Julitha Ryan (piano) from Melbourne instrumental band silver ray.Reviews:
While Nick Cave and some other Bad Seeds and assorted miscreants are off getting raucous in Grinderman, founding Bad Seed and multi-instrumentalist Mick Harvey has made a restrained solo album with the double bass in a prominent role and multiple guest pianists (P.J. Harvey's and Julitha Ray of the instrumental band Silver Ray), recorded live in the studio. Nine of the tracks on Two of Diamonds are covers of songs by P.J. Harvey, Bill Withers, Emmylou Harris, Australian punks the Saints and others.
