In addition to Mick Collins, another beautiful bastard devil-wizard of the genre is Greg - Oblivians - Cartwright. Legendary with the Oblivians, immense with the Compulsive Gamblers, and super with this other magnificent creature of his.

With Too Much Guitar, you tell yourself "okay, he made the masterpiece album with his Reigning Sound," and then this damned bastard does what?! He lets five years pass and slams a wonderful album on you, a "moody & melancholic" - his words - side of the Oblivians sound. You can't define it... it takes you back to adolescence with sounds full of sixties moods, R&B, soul but also steeped in that traditional American sound...
And with that bastard voice, winking... to hell with the 17 octaves of the "great singer," which I couldn't care less about... that animates this splendid bastard...
