Hammill. Peter - And Close As This (1986)

The 15th album from this British artist.

Peter Hammill is doing the keyboards and vocals himself on this album.

This is a true solo album. It has no inputs from the other members of Van Der Graaf Generator.

Peter Hammill has a very powerful voice and his lyrics are good too. That is what we have to rely on here as the piano and keyboards is just there to support his voice.

This is a very barebone solo-album, indeed.

The music is also very gloomy and angry. I do not think Peter Hammill do happy music.

So gloom it is.

I am not won over by this album at all. It is too bareboned for my liking and there is no good songs here.

Hence.....
