Gordon Anderson might still go down in the history books as the former member of The Beta Band and author of their biggest hit “Dry the Rain”, but it’s not for lack of trying. This release, his second US release under the moniker Lone Pigeon, gives a whole new meaning to eclectic. Stylistically, he is all over the map, even totally off the map and perhaps on the back of it from time to time. It’s not a bad record, but it is definitely acquired listening. Lone Pigeon is constantly being compared to Syd Barrett, and while it’s not totally accurate it’s about as close a comparison as I can come up with for this weird, fractured folk music.
