Elliott Murphy's 20th album captures his music at its best: live and acoustic. With Olivier Durand on guitar and background vocals, April takes the energy of Murphy's live show straight to your living room! A poetic lyricism is wedded to hard-edged arrangements by Long Island-born, Paris-based singer-songwriter Elliott Murphy. Although none of his songs have reached the Top 40, Murphy's influence is reflected through the music of Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, the Velvet Underground and the Talking Heads. Guests on Murphy's albums have included Shawn Colvin, Phil Collins, Billy Joel, Sonny Landreth, Bruce Springsteen and members of the Violent Femmes, Smithereens, Talking Heads and Velvet Underground. During Springsteen's 1996 European tour, Murphy was even invited on the stage in Paris to sing an acoustic duet version of his tune 'Rock Ballad.' On April 23, 1999 Elliott Murphy played a show in Affalter/Germany. This show was recorded, and when we heard the tape we called Elliott and said: 'Elliott, this is the live album all your fans have been waiting for for a long time, just you and Olivier Durand and your guitars.' When Elliott listened to the tape, he could not help but agree. Check out the artist's website: http://www.elliottmurphy.com Track List: 1. You Never Know What You're In For 2. Sicily 3.
