Glow - VELOUR
FILTER Grade: 78%
By Loren Auda Poin on October 17, 2012
Music is not a competition. Nonetheless, “points” must go to Kaki King for spinning this fully instrumental album into its own gorgeous realm of existence. The acoustic fingerwork is simply masterful, spellbinding; the string arrangements are exquisite and filling, soul-wise. This record generally begs your wine-soaked attention on any winsome November night of your choosing. The aptly titled Glow is not the best album of the year, but it is nonetheless incredible. Listen for beauty’s sake.
