This Delicate Thing We've Made
Well, my copy of the new Darren Hayes album - This Delicate Thing We've Made - arrived today.
This is the first time I've heard the album, apart from the single and a couple of other tracks live, and it's f'king AMAZING!
I'm not capable of writing a proper review so I'm not even going to try. Instead I'll just share my general feelings about the CD. Or should I say, 'CDs', as this is a double album.
I can honestly say I enjoyed every track. Some I loved, immediately. Others are less instantly to my taste, but I often find those sort of tracks grow on me. There were none that I disliked though, which is always a relief when you've really looked forward to a new cd! There is a real variety of styles on the album, but it just works. Thank goodness he wasn't tied to the constraints imposed by record companies this time. And the production is fabulous.
The photos and artwork in the sleeve notes/booklet are of an equally high standard. And I don't mind one little bit being referred to as one of the 'people I adore' (that's Darren referring to his fans.)
Ah, the joy of anticipation fulfilled!!!

I don't have your e-mail address handy, so just wanted to take the time to thank you for your very, very generous comments. Some days have been very tough to get through, of late, with my health being what it is, and nice comments such as yours, really helped keep me going. Thanks again, bless. Have a great week.
