Some Recent Press for Deep in a Dream
Posted Fri, Feb 5th 2010, 14:30
“McComb’s songs swarm with life – delivered ferocious with emotion,
written with a literary arc, in considered language, his rich songbook by
turns harrowing, archly funny, deliciously black. It’s wonderful to hear
McComb’s songs played live and brought to life on this album. There should
probably be an annual David McComb celebration… let’s keep the fires
burning .” Lauren Zoric, Mess and Noise
“Deep In A Dream may not contain the most ‘obvious’ of McCombs’ impressive
catalogue, but there is not one dud amongst them. In The Pines is a
highlight … as is the (Blackeyed Susans) rendition of one of the final
songs that McComb wrote – The Good Life Never Ends“ Xpress
“A lovely piece of serendipity… the live record sees The Blackeyed
Susans provide stirring renditions of classics like In the Pines and Ocean
of You, as well as the debut live performance of Blackeyed Susan, while
Charles Jenkins’ take on Raining Pleasure and Diving Bell’s version of
Tender is the Night prove highlights among many.” Rhythms Magazine
