Like Wendy - The Fisher (2020)

The ninth album from this band from the Netherlands.

The band is reduced to a one-man-band with Bert Heinen doing guitars, keyboards, bass, vocals and programmed drums.

A guest is adding trumpet.

I have not been overly happy about the last couple of Like Wendy albums. Being a one-man-band has it's limits and those are pretty much in evidence on these albums.

We are still somewhere between neo-prog and rock/pop on this album. The title track is split in two parts and is together half an hour long. There are also some shorter tracks here.

The music is not overly technical. The mellotron sound is a nice surprise and a plus in my book/review.

The songs are - again - somewhere between decent and good. More good than decent though and this album is a bit better than the two previous albums.

Check out this band and album.
