- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
2010 release from the British singer/songwriter. The story begins: Once upon
a time there was a Lord Burgess who was a very wealthy and respected
landowner at the turn of the last century. He had butlers, servants and most
importantly maids to wait on him hand and foot. This 'Lord' ended up having
his wicked way with one of his maids, therefore leaving the mother no other
choice but to abandon her bastard child and give him to the orphanage. This
bastard of a baby was Robinson's great grandfather, who turned out to be a
coal mining alcoholic. Robinson insists that this family background has been
a trigger for his creativity; however, his music is influenced by the likes
of Dylan and Waits. Inspirations are endless and ongoing, from the readings
of Charles Bukowski and other beatniks to the darker gothic sounds of Eastern
Europe. Whether it be guitar, piano, clarinet or sax, Robinson's melodies are
pulled from many lovers. Where does the story go from here? Will Robinson
echo the life of his great grandfather or is there something much better
waiting around the corner?
