Thread Name: Info: Mike Silver
Subject: RE: Mike silver
I've *still* to see him live, but one day...one day...

Meanwhile I make do listening to his 'Solid Silver' CD and 'Roadworks'....although at the moment I can't find 'Solid Silver' *anywhere*, but I know it's here, because I saw it just the other day...Grrrr!

I bought 'Solid Silver' first, and was so impressed that 'Roadworks' followed pretty shortly afterwards. I heard about Mike on the old BBC board, a few years back now. People kept mentioning him, saying how good he was, and you know what? They were darn right.

Because of this thread, I've just today ordered his new CD 'How Many Rivers' Yup, Mike Silver is costing me a small fortune! :0) His songs cover any and every subject under the sun, some are very moving, no..*many* are very moving, and he sings them beautifully too.
Can't recommend him highly enough.
