KEVIN ROWLANDMY BEAUTY (1999)
320 KBPS
Kevin Rowland is an incredibly brave man. After years of drug abuse, poverty, and a career in the dustcan, "My Beauty" was supposed to have represented a triumphant return to the music business. Unfortunately, due to his sartorial choice of the moment it turned into a regrettable laughing-stock.
The record is a spirited selection of covers, songs which Rowland claims helped him through the dark days. It is art as therapy, which doesn't always amount to good (or easy) listening, especially when the therapy sounds to have only recently begun. Particularly disturbing and disruptive is Rowland's tendency to change the lyrics to suit his 'healing' view of the world.
