This collection of songs from Simon Scardanelli is drawn from his wide catalogue and spans 1993 - 2019. A great introduction to his music, or, if you're already a fan, a great way to get to know the songs more intimately. With guitar & ukulele chords, top-line melody and lyrics, as well as commentary - and a tall story or two - along with photographs from various periods in Simon's career, this is an excellent read and a great insight into a unique artist's life. The Kindle version includes every song as an audio file (on audio enabled devices).Simon Scardanelli has been writing, recording, performing and releasing music since 1981. His band Big Bam Boo achieved chart success in the USA, Canada and the UK in 1989. Simon has released 7 solo albums and an assortment of EPs and singles, as well as two stage musicals. Reviews: A spine-tingling listen Maverick MagazineThis is the 4th solo album from this indie/folk maverick and he's quickly into his groove here with a kind of Because Of You-era Dexy's Midnight Runners vibe, toes- a-tapping and accordions, fiddle, cajon, clarinet, soprano sax, guitars and mandolin very much to the fore. It's a lovely melange of sounds and arranged quite beautifully making for an arresting listening. Bravo. - The CrackMake Us Happy is a spectacular effort, chock full of charm and whimsy, wrapped up in an exotic package full of heavy-duty chops and tones. Marty Peters, Recording MagazineYou never know what is lurking around That Dangerous Sparkle's dark corner, but whatever it is will always shockand surprise. Scardanelli is always prepared to take a risk, and we should all hope that it is this experimentation that is the future of British singer/songwriters. Evan Parker - Base.AdSimon's greatest asset is a fantastic singing voice....his performance on tracks such as They Dance bear comparison to the likes of Scott Walker. Sound On Sound Magazine...a beguiling range of powerful sonorities and richly textured vocal styles. Michael WardIf you like intriguing and experimental songwriting, charismatic performing and singing that works in some of the areas explored by the likes of Scott Walker, Vini Reilly, Léo Ferré, Jacques Brel and Georges Brassens, you'll be inspired to discover Simon Scardanelli's work.
