Free Music Notes for I Often Dream of TrainsFree Music Review: Haunting, Scary, Funny, BeautifulRobyn Hitchcock saved me from oblivion in the early 1980s, shortly after David Bowie had sold out to stadium pop. What can you say about an artist who is like a cross between Bob Dylan and The Gormenghast Trilogy? The first thing that stands out in any Hitchcock excursion is the quirky sense of humor, best seen here in the hilarious Freudian barbershop "Uncorrected Personality Traits." But the underside of a dark sense of humor is just plain dark: "Sometimes I Wish I Was a Pretty Girl" and "Sounds Great When You're Dead" have an edge and desperation so intense and authentic as to border on the frightening. But there is sweetness and sadness here as well, as in "Autumn Is Your Last Chance" and the instrumentals that bookend the album. This is one of finest pieces of solo work by an utterly unique artist.
