about

City Lake, Tomorrow Was The Golden Age, and No Home Of The Mind are masterful albums driven by Bing & Ruth’s leader David Moore at the piano, while their 4th release, Species, is an exploration of the sonic possibilities of the Farfisa organ aided only by a clarinet and double bass (played respectively by founding members Jeremy Viner and Jeff Ratner).

The title Species is a nod to both humanity and humility – a devotion to the godly intuition with which we are all endowed, and the humbleness required of us to perceive it. It’s also about suspended time and trance; not just a steady movement from A to B, but as something that flows, meanders and eddies, like water.

With Species (Solo Piano) Moore reimagines “Body In A Room” and “Nearer” on piano, creating beautiful interpretations of the tracks that blossom as unique works of their own.

This is exceptional music making. Brooding, quiet yet full of interest. Repeating motifs, drones and gentle electric guitar tones. It reminds me in places of late Talk Talk. Thank you Cowboy Sadness, more please. joff curtoys
