Ohio Knox ‎– Ohio Knox (1971)



Singer-songwriter delivers a brilliant yet overlooked set of tunes here, backed by top session musicians of the era. The tunes range from sparse folk (North Country Laura) to jazzy rock (No Sleep for the Wicked), though a heartland folk-rock feel dominates. John Sebastian of the Lovin' Spoonful contributes fine harmonica and stinging guitar on "Baby Sox Knox", Gallway's "Ohio Knox" signature theme. Dallas Taylor (of CSNY fame) pounds the skins masterfully as well.

L'auteur-compositeur-interprète Peter Gallway livre ici un ensemble d'airs brillants mais ignorés, soutenus par les meilleurs musiciens de l'époque. Les registres vont du folk clairsemé (North Country Laura) au rock jazzy (No Sleep for the Wicked), même si une sensation folk rock domine. John Sebastian de Lovin 'Spoonful contribue à l'harmonica et à la guitare  sur "Baby Sox Knox", thème de la signature "Ohio Knox" de Gallway. Dallas Taylor (de renommée CSNY) sert également magistralement la section rythmique.
