ADAM GREEN - MINOR LOVE


Now on his 6th album, New Yorker singer/songwriter Adam Green recorded 'Minor Love' in almost isolation, playing nearly all the instruments himself. Green states that the album showcases "a tender side of the often arrogant and emotionally unavailable bully/singer" - light stuff then.

'Minor Love' shows Adam Green all grown up, following on from his last album 'Sixes & Sevens', leaving out almost all humour and focusing on proper songwriting. And it works in most cases. It is short and sweet, most of the songs are decent and most importantly, interesting.
