Something slow and calm, with a beautiful voice, for this Friday evening.
It's nice to hear the voice of Andrew Montgomery again, after all this time. I really loved Geneva's albums and I think I will like this too. Looking forward to hear more beautiful music when his album is released.

Reading about music
My search for Geneva the other day took me even further when I found this link at the Geneva site:
have you seen the horizon book yet?
A good read was what I found, even two of them:
Jamie S. Rich has written about 'Weather Underground', Geneva’s second album from 2000, at his blog: Confessions of a Pop Fan. This was the first time I came across his blog and apparently he has (some years ago) written about 52 albums that have had significance to him as a fan.
For me it was an experience to read his thoughts on Weather Underground and later also his thoughts on Suede's single compilation from 2003, track by track.
This might not sound that interesting to some, but I must point out that the man can write! If you haven't read it, and have a somewhat interest in the mentioned albums or bands, I urge you to do so.
I'm sure there are more interesting things to read there, especially among those 52 albums, but this was as far as I got the other day.

If you have to go
My mind and thoughts took me back in time yesterday. Why I happened to think about this particular band, I’m not quite sure. Maybe I wanted to spread some lovely music to people around me, and this band just popped into my head? Maybe this music is so close to my heart, even though I may not listen to it that frequently, that I always mention it to people I care about? Maybe there’s some truth in that, I like to think so.
Years ago I stumbled over this band that was at the same label as my beloved Suede, i.e. nude records. I don't know how I came to listen to their music but I know that I loved it from the start. I know their debut 'Further' by heart and I do love their second and last album, 'Weather Underground', too.
The band is Geneva.
As I went through some videos at YouTube yesterday, I happened to see an interesting address: www.aplaceinthespace.co.uk
- And that’s how I found out that they've not gone away, not entirely, because there you'll find them and their wonderful music. It’s a lovely site.
Here is one of their beautiful songs: If you have to go
If you click onto my Further page, so named because of Geneva's album, you'll find their MySpace as well as the one of singer Andrew Montgomery. And, finally, I think it’s a shame that their second album can’t be found at Spotify...
