16.12.08 | Conrad Bye Tony Addis |

 |
I'm really sad to hear that Tony Addis (aka The Blue Man of Bath) passed away last Thursday having had a heart attack. Tony came in to our recording session for 'Moi et Mon Camion' and contributed his grand old voice to three of the songs on the album. It was a defining moment in the making of the record, he added the special sauce. And since the album has been released I am continuously asked about him by journalists and fans. He came to my album launch show in London's Bush Hall in March and spontaneously sang out all his parts from the audience while those stood near him wondered who the nutter was. That constituted our only live duet but it brought a BIG smile to my face and still does. More power to you Tony. |

“A likely candidate for album of the year. It’s that special.” 5/5 Sunday Times Pop CD of the Week "Conrad Lambert displays the kind of talent that pop award judges shouldn't be allowed to ignore.....there is such a wealth of natural songwriting ability on display here...it’s the singers lyrical gift that grip’" 5/5 Independent Album of the Week “Had Thom Yorke penned anything as moving as ‘Silver Moon Ladders’ or ‘Presume Too Much’ for his solo effort, the applause would still be ringing” 4/5 Uncut "Chris Martin has endorsed Merz in the past because he knows that only at the absolute top of their game can his band get close to the power of Lambert's songwriting. Only two questions remain: why isn't he much much more famous and why did he name the album after a removal truck?" The Sunday Times “Intricate, melodious songs that blend electronica and folk… understated, heartfelt stuff” 4/5 Q "Lambert is a singular talent... an album of subtle enchantments" The Observer “A delicate, sweetly sung tour de force” 4/5 The Sun “Unsettlingly good” 7/10 NME “An album of rare musical intelligence, illuminated by intriguing arrangements…there’s no doubt he’s a significant if eccentric talent” Daily Telegraph |
