リマスターシリーズ第1弾。ボーナストラックでオサリバンの初期のレアな曲を聴くことができます。このころのオサリバンはYouTubeでたくさん見ることができますが、その後の彼とは趣を異にしており違った魅力を感じることができ、私的にはこのころのオサリバンが大好きです。特に" Nothing Rhymed "、" We Will "は名曲です。

71年発表の1st。「アローン・アゲイン」などのヒットでも知られる英国シンガーソングライターのデビュー作。同じくピアノの弾き語りのシンガーソングライターであったエルトン・ジョンとは一味も二味も違ったノスタルジーで情感に溢れた楽曲/ヴォーカルは派手さこそないが、完全に彼独自の一つのスタイルになっており、探してみても同じものは二つとない。収録曲はジャケットにも表現された世界そのままの素晴しいものが並んでいるが、その中でもシングルとしても発表された7.は個人的にも彼の作品の中で最も愛した楽曲であり、彼の人間性、しいては心の純粋さや美しさを如実に現していると同時に、誰しもが若い頃に体感する社会や人生においての矛盾や挫折を見事に表現した傑作だと思う。そういった人の心に一つの楔を打ち込むような詩的表現は、本作発表後にセカンド・アルバムに先駆けて発表される先の「アローン・アゲイン」にも受け継がれていくが、一言で言えばちょっと重い内容をさらりと歌い流す楽曲そのもののセンスとヴォーカル/演奏スタイルは凄いと言わざるを得ない。1.の甘いメロディは後のコーギスを、クラリネットやブラスの入ったディキシー調の2.ではスタックリッジを感じさせる部分もあり、英国ポップの胆をしっかり感じさせると同時に6.ではザ・バンドのような粘る演奏/サウンドを聞かせており、彼のイメージに付きまとう弾き語りを超えた優れた作品であることは強く念を押したいと思う。こういう作品を好きにならない人は稀だろう。

ジャケットに相応しいノスタルジックな佳曲が散りばめれたオサリヴァンの最高傑作だと思っています。毎年何度かは無性に聴きたくなるアルバムで聞く度に何だか名作を読み終えたような余韻が残ります。ファーストだけ会ってオサリヴァンの熱い思いが溢れているのだと思います。原点です。

le 1er acte réussi
2013年1月8日にフランスでレビュー済みAmazonで購入
1er album de Gilbert O'Sullivan ce disque commence par une courte intro ou l'artiste se présente, il fera ainsi sur ses disques suivants, le disque se clôture sur un mini morceau, outro.
Le livret est parfait, avec une courte histoire pour présenter chaque chanson, les textes sont présents bien sûr.
Il y a le tube Matrimony, Nothing rhymed et 7 inédits de qualité dont des faces b de 45t, 2 démos, le hit single No matter i try.
1er 33t de Gilbert c'est un coup de maître, look marrant et voix nasillarde, tout est là dans ce disque, mélodies imparables, arrangements sautillants, influence Mac Cartney et insouciance de l'époque.
Bio insérée sur une autre chronique:
Condensé de pop et de belles mélodies, Gilbert O'Sullivan l'irlandais est enfin réédité sur la 1ére partie de sa carrière.
Mais O'Sullivan n'a finalement laissé que quelques chansons dans la mémoire collective ( matrimony, clair, get down, ooh baby etc ) et c'est injuste tant il fut, et reste, un songwriter de talent. ( il sort de beaux disques, fait des concerts encore en 2012 et son métier avec grâce et talent)
Bien sûr il n'avait pas le coté romantique et rock du Elton John des seventies, mais ses balades, sirupeuses parfois c’est vrai, étaient de toute beauté.
On peut le comparer à Gerry Rafferty de Stealer's whell ou Walter Egan son alter égo, sur certains titres à l'illustre Mac Cartney aussi.
O' Sullivan eut un succès énorme, il était impossible d'écouter la radio sans tomber sur un de se tubes.
Discographie 33t et cd hors les nombreux inédits en 45t et sorties de 68 et 69, les dvd.

Possibly speed issues on two bonus tracks, but surprisingly enjoyable album
2013年9月25日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I used to have this album on vinyl, which I had only initially kept for Too Much Attention. (Check it out if you haven't heard it - a great curio.) Having not played the track for a while, discovering how clicky the record was, and reading some reviews here I thought I'd have a go with the CD. I was surprised how worthwhile it was. The sound is possibly slightly muddy in places, and some of the bonus tracks seem to be sourced from vinyl. The vinyl sourced tracks though seem to have been largely declicked/crackled quite well without destroying the underlaying sound. However, two tracks seem to have been sourced at some point from acetate. These have not survived so well, but they are definitely of interest. Sadly, they seem to play too slow. They sound like they were digitised at 48 kHz and at some point were played at 44.1 kHz instead of downsampled. I have contacted Salvo about this issue long before posting this here. They confirmed they would be looking into this but I heard nothing subsequently, which is a shame.

Better than remembered
2012年4月21日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I was around fourteen when this album was originally released. I loved 'No Matter How I Try' and 'Alone Again Naturally' so bought this album. Ive waited a long time for this to be released on CD, and at last the wait is over. The album is much better than i remembered it, and sounds surprisingly up to date and fresh. Let me make a couple of comments here, i buy mainly Rock and Heavy Rock albums, but i do have a diverse taste in music. I also love lyrics, and O'Sullivan is a superb wordsmith. No Americanisations here as with so many other English bands, no talk of Dollars and Cadillacs. This is refreshingly English in its observations and humour, with some very clever wordplay. In this modern age O'Sullivan probably seems twee and unfashionable to most, but if your a true music lover, try to forget the sweetness of songs like 'Clair' (though still a good song)and the later open shirted, sex symbol image, and give this a go. The album, unlike many modern albums, is very diverse and is sufficiently varied to hold the interest. Many of the songs i realise now, are reminiscent of Beatles tracks (Rubber Sole era)and the addition of extra tracks like 'Save It', make it even better value. Superb.

a true original
2015年12月29日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This is a masterpiece. How can anyone write songs like Susan Van Heusen and Houdini Said ? Words and music flow in unexpected directions and recall the great days of songwriting without studio wizardry.to cover over cracks. His voice is harsher than it becomes on the next album but honest. Bonus tracks are a mixed bag. Good to have the singles but hard to imagine the demos would have attracted any interest. Full marks to those who spotted Gilbert's potential and gave him his voice.A true original. Pity that he never quite equaled the heights of this, his first outing on album.
