...autumnal equinox was yesterday. I thought I'd do a little research - i.e. Googling "songs about autumn" - to see what kind of playlist I could come up with to mark the change of season Let's start with George Duke's beautiful 1934 ballad "Autumn In New York," as sung by U.S. pop singer Jo Stafford , who passed away earlier this year at age...

...Autumn at their very best once again. The blend of melody, Floydian guitarwork and folky passages on this album is as good as it ever was, almost as good as on The Last Bright Light. The one beaming issue here however is what direction they are going in. They started off a kind of Progressive Folk Poppish blend, followed through into a pure...

...Autumn Past" tends to the more reflective side of the band. To be honest, this can be translated as "boring" at times, especially in the early going, as "Winter Mountain", "Pieces of Love" and, to a lesser extent, "Please", all suffer from lack of dynamics not to mention less than captivating melodies Mostly Autumn seem to be playing excess...

...Autumn sound, also on this new album you can enjoy lots of dynamics between the folky parts (featuring instruments like twanging acoustic guitars, Grand piano, Uillean pipes and flute) and the more compelling and bombastic parts (loaded with a heavy keyboard sound and often howling Floydian guitar runs), embellished with wonderful male and...

...Autumn these days are a lot of the time a much heavier proposition. However theres still plenty of room for the quieter more reflective moments usually sung by Heather Findlay who has developed into a fine Vocalist over the last few albums. Thankfully on more recent albums she takes far more lead Vocals over Bryan Josh whose deadpan delivery...

...Autumn are a talented group who play Pink Floyd folk. The sound and atmospheres are all very good, and they also have Heather Findlay on board as a vocalist. I, like many, discovered Mostly Autumn through hearing Heather's gorgeous gift on The Human Equation and after hearing some samples of Mostly Autumn's songs, I felt compelled to check...

...Autumn taking a few steps back to a sound more in keeping with earlier releases than the more bombastic approach of the last couple of albums. A step back it may be but no doubt welcome by many early fans of the band who preferred the more mellow folk sound of the past. The band seems to becoming more streamlined with mainman Bryan Josh...

...Autumn appeared as guest vocal, played her wonderful role as Love. What an excellent performance she did, for example in DAY THREE: PAIN. That debut was heavily influenced by PINK FLOYD, STEVE HACKETT and FOCUS even though their music is different its more on folk-based music with some ambient, psychedelic and symphonic flavors. If we...

...Autumn is exciting enough on its own power with the heartfelt vocals, dazzling guitar, flute, strings, and powerful drumming. I comment here on the performance and not the material itself of which Im not all that familiar. As mentioned the show is more than entertaining enough but has some flaws as well. Individually the vocalists can do...
