Driving Lessons
No Not the Chet Baker song, although Lind's CV includes being a jazz pianist in Paris. But then it also includes being a blues singer in New York, fronting a rock band in Kentucky and playing on the UK pub circuit (he's English although he lives in the US). At times the album is Americana - the taste for 3/4 tempos: Come In From The Cold's raw Dylanesque blues; the even rawer Disco Boat and the gospel They Laid Jesus Christ in His Grave. But then the Brit pokes through in Beatles-like touches on I'm Not Worried and Let's Get Lost. Predominantly it's big pop - a bit mainstream occasionally, but more often classic and beautifully sung. Particularly so on I Don't Miss You, just voice and piano; Rufus Wainwright will kick himself he didn't write this.
