Free Music Review: Welcome back Don Dixon
Hit: 4 Stars
As a long time fan of both Don Dixon and his beautiful bride, Marti Jones, I welcomed the sight of this new release from Don Dixon. I discovered Don Dixon and Marti Jones during the mid 80s by hearing their songs on a local radio station (WHFS 99.1 FM in Maryland). The DJs on WHFS, Weasel (aka Jonathan Gilbert) and Damien Einstein would play cuts from Marti Jones' "Unsophisticated Time" A&M records LP and Don Dixon's "All of the Girls..." indie release(s). Does anyone remember "Praying Mantis" or "Follow You All Over the World"? I still own those two cherished vinyl records!
I had the pleasure of seeing Don and Marti at the old 9:30 club in downtown DC in the summer of 1986. What a show! Don and Marti played all their great songs from the aforementioned LPs. Quite a show and I believe either the WHFS DJ Weasel or DJ Damien did the introductions to the show....can't remember which one...oh well, had a great time at the show.
So, enough of the history of Marti and Don's airplay and concerts in the Washington DC area...what about this new CD? I like it very much. The CD has a theme all about various rooms (a church, a dorm, an ICU, etc.) and works very well from a conceptual standpoint. Don's lyrics/singing and the arrangements/production conjure up a different feeling for each song (room).
Don's soulful singing voice has aged well and he appears to enjoy singing these songs! Marti Jones also sounds great on the final cut (a cover) singing Let's Active's "Room With a View."
Welcome back Don Dixon! Hope to see Don in the Washington DC area if he tours to support the new CD.
I highly recommend this CD
