This Week's Song is Dave's recording of Crowded House's Four Seasons In One Day. Dave has long been a fan of Neil Finn and the boys, and this track was meant to go on a Neil Finn tribute album a few years back. 

Enjoy!

Hey Everybody

Check out the latest and greatest review of Dave Stephens new album Stories For Copper at www.notlame.com!!


Dave Stephens - Stories For Copper


2006 release from Dave Stephens who leads off "Stories For Copper" with a song entitled "I`ve Woken Up" that has that "Bellybutton"-era Jellyfish vibe and even works in a bit of Freddie Mercury pop. Indeed, a lot of this album is grounded in Mercury-styled piano pop as "The Man I Once Knew" shows most effectively. His debut, "Here We Go.." impressed, but this one takes what was hinted there to another level. Fans of David Grahame, Doug Powell, Emitt Rhodes(lots!) and Phil Angotti need to spend some time with Dave Stephens, for sure! But what is most striking and makes this album hang around long after the lights are turned off is that Stephens knows his way around a song, taking his cues equally from McCartney, Lennon and Harrison and, principally, writing on piano. This songs would hold up if it they were just voice and piano, even though they are full embellished with instrumental attention. Delicious, slow yet soaring, yet simple melodies all over.


"Dave Stephens is just the kind of artist that fits perfectly into our radio show. He would fit nicely on anyone`s stereo. This Canadian artist struck as as an artist who falls into the Emitt Rhodes school of pop. We dont` like to compare one artist to another(Ed: leave that to me! Bruce @ Not Lame) and although he doesn`t actually sound like Rhodes or Paul McCartney or Ali Thomson for that matter - either way - Dave Stephens is the real deal. His songs are infectous."-TimeMachineBlog. "His melodies are chock full of hooks, yet the easy use of rubato, syncopation and other musical devices reveal his high level of musicianship."-CanMusic. Very Highly Recommended!!
