George Lang in the The Daily Oklahoman (20 February ) finished his review ofthe new Norah jones CD, with a little aside: "I have seen the future of rock 'n' roll, and its name is Butterfly Boucher. This Australian singer-songwriter's debut combines Todd Rundgren-style hooks and Aimee Mann's world-weary inflections to create accessible and smart pop music" - Sounds interesting...
On the same day, Adam Walton of the Liverpool Daily Post tackled the joys of parenting, and of young childrens musical taste, when decrying his daughters liking for Will Young It is he says "misplaced,anal music snobbery" but more the fact that no matter how many expertly compiled CDs - "featuring the cream of the finest music ever made" he makes "resplendent in tunes fromThe Beach Boys,Todd Rundgren ,XTC etc.etc., Ava still sits down for breakfast and asks for "Will! Yes please!"
Finally, the Daily Mirror's Gavin Martin was telling us to buy JOSH ROUSE's new CD - 1972, which "celebrates the musical paradise of the period (Steely Dan, Todd Rundgren, Philly and Motown) and this gorgeous offering includes a cheeky nod to the Stones' disco classic Miss You in its irresistible bouquet of finger-clicking bop and lovesick longing"
