Coming out of retirement, Harper has produced a record that’s independent, assertive and honest. Hats off to him. Sorry, I had to.
Almost half a century into his career, Roy Harper certainly can't be criticised for being unfruitful. Man And Myth is his 22nd studio release, and the standard hasn't dropped even marginally. This album shows a man reflecting on his life. Only by running his fingers through 70 years of living could a man acquire such insight – and this is absolutely evident in the second track, Time Is Temporary. Coming out of retirement, Harper has produced a record that's independent, assertive and honest. Hats off to him. Sorry, I had to.
