A Journey Too Far

The fifth studio LP from Benedic Lamdin under his main Nostalgia 77 monkier, this album finds the respected producer, composer, songwriter and guitarist further developing his creative partnership with rising German singer Josa Peit, whose rich, quirky lead vocals grace nine of the eleven tracks; with country soul supreme Jeb Loy Nichols singing the remaining two in his loose charismatic style.

Gripping instrumentals, deft production and Josa Petit's intuitive vocals lend this album and irresistible, enigmatic pull, from the delightful bobbing and weaving into of opener 'What Do You Know' and through out the ebb and flow of the record.

Horn arraignments, which belie Nostelgia 77's jazz roots, add a strident quality to the bluesy excursions on the album.
