Free Music Notes for Under the Wishing Tree
Free Music Review: Wishing Tree Bearing Fruit
Hit: 5 Stars
This work drifted into earshot after reading more closely Dylan's insightful notes in,'Biograph' where Sexton's prodigious talents get passing mention. Little did I know that said Charlie was to figure as guitar support with one of Dylan's touring bamds in the 90s. Following the most oblique and casual remarks of Dylan has always been rewarding. It helped me stumble on his buddy, James Dickerson's brilliant,'Free Beer Tomorrow'. And so to Sexton, whose ,'Wishing Tree' gloves beutifully with,'Free Beer', if your into a southern-fried sort of mood. There is so much quality music issuing from the Lone Star State it's just not feasible, granted the size of the entertainment market, for all wannabes to get the big spotlight. But Sexton is decidely worthy of a brighter beam than has, thus far, fallen on him. The panoramic, atmospheric scape of the Lanois school of sound is evident throughout. Someone has been listening to their ,'Joshu Tree' to great effect.'Neighbourhood' and the title track kick off the set and its hold is sustained throughout. I love the despairing,'Everyone Will Crawl's' dream of flying where the singer climbs a moutain, sneaks up on a man with his notebook of stone. It's quasi religious mutterings of first learning the humble path of crawling strike as aptly expressing the simple, but far from simplistic honesty of Sexton's muse. Jim Crace's book,'Quarantine' came to mind. It's a generous sampling and if I have a quibble (as with the lengthy Joseph Arthur's,'Redemption's Son') I'd have left the last two tracks for another date to toughen the impact.
Under the Wishing Tree Poster
The only redeeming thing about the demise of the Arc Angels, who flamed out in classic drugs-and-rock-&-roll fashion in 1994, is that they freed this preternaturally gifted 26-year-old to establish himself finally as a major-league star. Joined by a crew of Austin soulmates, Sexton delves for surprisingly mature, though restrained, and deceptively hard-hitting rockers unlike anything he's done before. Coproducer Malcolm Burn's risky and indelible spirit haunts the music, which conjures dreamy images of Dylan ("Billy"), Del Amitri ("Everyone Will Crawl"), Mellencamp ("Sunday Clothes") and ultimately no one but Sexton himself ("Neighborhood," "Wishing Tree"). --Jeff BatemanAlternative Rock Music CDs
