Review

Mojo (Publisher) (p.105) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[S]ongs such as 'Love Affair' and 'Baby Doll' offer a perfect synthesis of his distinctive worldview and voice..."

Title Note

Robyn Hitchcock: Robyn Hitchcock (vocals, guitar, harmonica, piano, bass guitar); Moris Tepper (acoustic guitar); Terry Edwards (horns, organ).

Recording information: RMS Studios; Hanszek Studios.

As an outtakes album, SHADOW CAT stands a cut above the average assembly of studio leftovers. That's not surprising coming from Robyn Hitchcock, however, whose sizable and variegated body of work is remarkably consistent. Hitchcock is joined here by guitarist Morris Tepper (formerly of Captain Beefheart's Magic Band) and Terry Edwards on organ, but this is a mostly acoustic set that finds Robyn front and center.

With the exception of the dark, moody cover of Hendrix's "The Wind Cries Mary," SHADOW CAT contains all Hitchcock originals. "For Debbie Reynolds" and "The Cat Walks Her Kind of Line" are among the many highlights in this batch of quirky, atmospheric, low-key folk-pop. Those who know the singer-songwriter from the film STOREFRONT HITCHCOCK will find much to recognize and appreciate on this intimate acoustic set.

Editorial Reviews

TOWER.COM REVIEW

Album Review

Robyn Hitchcock has taken time out from working with The Venus 3 (which features various members of REM) and John Paul Jones (who has been busy with his former band Led Zeppelin lately...) to compile an exclusive album, "Shadow Cat", for London’s premier oddball label Sartorial Records. This collection of previously unreleased material from the Hitchcock vaults dates from 1993�99, providing the missing link between The Egyptians on A&M and the Warner Bros years. "Shadow Cat" is essential for those who have followed Robyn from his early days in The Soft Boys to his work with film director Jonathan Demme and beyond. "Shadow Cat" also serves as a fine introduction to the work of one of England's most treasured songwriters. Enjoy!
