1972
RAIN FROM THE SKY * SLIM SMITH * JACKPOT 789 * UK
Keith 'Slim' Smith, it is said, was always getting very involved with his love affair's, this is certainly the way it comes across in his songs, they are sung with a tortuous emotional expression that at times threatens to spill over into hysteria. Fortunately on many cuts they don't and this heightened expressive honesty makes for some unique and remarkable songs.
