█ Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine █
█ █
█ An intricate, deliberately idiosyncratic record, assembled piece by █
█ piece, Boulders perfectly captures Roy Wood's peculiar genius, more so █
█ than anything else he recorded. All of his obsessions are here -- █
█ classical music, psychedelia, pre-Beatles pop, pastoral folk ballads, █
█ absurdist humor, studio trickery, and good old-fashioned rock & roll -- █
█ assembled in a gracefully eccentric fashion. Some listeners may find █
█ that eccentricity a little alienating, but it's the core of Wood's █
█ music. He wrote tuneful, accessible songs, but indulged his passions and █
█ weird ideas, so even the loveliest melodies and catchiest hooks are █
█ dressed in colorful, odd arrangements. The marvelous thing is, these █
█ arrangements never sound self-consciously weird -- it's the sound of █
█ Wood's music in full bloom. Never before and never again did his quirks █
█ sound so charming, even thrilling, as they do on Boulders. As soon as █
█ "Songs of Praise" reaches its chorus, a choir of sped-up, multi-tracked █
█ Roys kick in, sending it into the stratosphere. All nine tunes unwind in █
█ a similar fashion, each blessed with delightfully unpredictable twists. █
█ It's easy to spot the tossed-off jokes on the goofy "When Gran'ma Plays █
█ the Banjo," but it may take several spins to realize that the percussion █
█ on "Wake Up" is the sound of Roy slapping a bowl of water. Boulders is a █
█ sonic mosaic -- you can choose to wonder at the little details or gaze █
█ at the glorious whole, enjoying the shape it forms. Wood has an unerring █
█ knack for melodies, whether they're in folk ballads, sweet pop or █
█ old-fashioned rock & rollers, yet his brilliance is how he turns the █
█ hooks 180 degrees until they're gloriously out of sync with his █
█ influences and peers. Boulders still sounds wonderfully out of time and █
█ it's easy to argue that it's the peak of his career. [The 2007 edition █
█ included one bonus track, a rough mix of "Dear Elaine".] █
