Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds

Well, it's simple, the album is here so it has quality. Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, it makes you wonder... It also gives hope. An album of somebody who makes real music in the old fashioned way, with instruments. And not just any album either. This is showing craftsmanship, musical knowledge and experience. Yet this is not an album that has the attitude of, I'll show you how it's done. The songs are rich in sounds and rather melodic. At no point is this album difficult to listen to nor at any point will you get bored. Would this album be better if brother Liam would have sung a song or two? I don't think so. I think that it's the first time that there could be composed without any obligatory input/idea/meaning of etc. What is very likable about this album is that, for me, the songs have become richer but are still well controlled and it feels like they are more precise. A wonderful piece of work, if you like melodic pop-tunes, this album is a must.
