THE RHYMER IN THE LONG-TONGUED ROOM
"The Rhymer In The Long-Tongued Room" isn't just an album title; it's a tongue-twister that'll have you questioning reality faster than a Kaleidoscope B-side. But don't let the whimsical name fool you - this is Daltrey at his most introspective, wrapping his signature voice around a more folksy vibe that'll have you swapping your lava lamp for a campfire.
From the tea-sipping serenity of "Green Tea" to the garden party psychedelia of "Geranium Rain," Daltrey proves he can still craft a hook catchier than the common cold. "Nothing Ever Seems To Rhyme" brings the harmonica blues so authentically, you'll swear Dylan sneaked into the studio. And "Angelina"? It's a ballad so beautiful, it might just make your vinyl weep.
But wait, there's more! Daltrey's brought his son Oli Daltrey along for the ride, adding some fresh guitar licks to Dad's timeless pop/rock sensibilities. Whether you're a long-time Kaleidoscope kultist or a curious newcomer wondering "Who's this Daltrey chap, then?", "The Rhymer In The Long-Tongued Room" is your ticket to a world where folk meets psychedelia, and every lyric is a trip down the rabbit hole of Daltrey's imagination.
