Hobotalk - Alone Again Or

Alone Again Or is the opening track of Love's genuine classic Forever Changes (1967) (not Young...). It was written by band member Bryan MacLean was also do the vocals - not Arthur Lee – and was covered by people like The Damned, The Boo Radleys, Calexico, Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs...
Singer-songwriter Marc Pilley is not alone, together with guitar-player Ross Edmond, Al Denholm (Bass) and Iain Bruce (Drums), he founded Hobotalk in the late 1990s. The band (with new members around him now) just released their fourth album called Alone Again Or few weeks ago.
If the title of the album has nothing to do with the song mentioned above, I guess Hobotalk won't disagree if I state Love as one of his major influences, like The Band, mainly during the first electric part of the CD (even if Hobo Chang Ha reminds me of Captain Beefheart). The second part of the cd called The Acoustic Morn is more in the vein of artist like Vetiver, to mane only contemporary musicians.
Let's stop here all comparisons. Hobotalk can survive alone (again). His light production backed on two songs by the beautiful vocals (Jake Cogan, Amanda Lyon) gave to his folk-rock melodies enough invention and characters to satisfy the legions of listeners that Hobotalk ought to reach.
