Albums of 2016 - 34. WHITNEY - LIGHT UPON THE LAKE

34. WHITNEY - LIGHT UPON THE LAKE 


A great summer jaunt. This debut recalls The Byrds. I could just leave the review at that but Jimmy Fuller, the bands biggest fan, would probably sue me. Better to say that here are 10 tracks of absolute radiance, brass, singalongs, blues, vintage jams - critics will no doubt say it's perfect for Urban Outfitters - I agree. Great.

When it's as hot as it is in Taipei in the summertime, you need a cold shower and some summer anthems and of course a few albums of this list qualify as said cooler. This one packs it in half an hour though, so it's best played in two sittings. Hahahahahaha. You're really cool and funny.

Overall, Light Upon The Lake is a great start and what remains now is the hope that Whitney can make some classics and not fall victims to pressure and hype. Not that Spaghetti Blogonese  is ever ever ever ever ever ever gonna y'know c'mon.........LOLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
