Fish - Songs from the Mirror (1993)

 

The third album from this artist from Great Britain.

Fish did the lead vocals here.

He was helped by some guests who added drums, percussion, bass, guitars, fiddle, keyboards, whistles adn backing vocals.

I normally never review cover versions albums. I don't want to touch them with a forty feet long barge pole either. But I am doing a review of all this pretty big artist's albums so this is the exception from this rule.  

I have no idea what possessed Fish to release an album full of cover versions as his third solo album. But that is what he did here.

His versions of these songs from Kinks, Genesis, Pink Floyd, David Bowie and others are also very poor and is just adding this terrible 1980s/1990s sound to these older songs. In most cases, he destroys the songs.

This is a poor, poor album and a big mistake from this artist whom I rather admire. 

It is in a few words a turkey. Avoid and bypass this album.
