Review - Graeme Connors “Son of a Son of a Son of a Railway Man”

single on ABC Country thru EMI Music

 

I love Graeme Connors’ work. It was introduced to me just prior to the release on ABC of his re-debut with them “These Blue Skies” back in 1996. And through “The Road Les Travelled” and the last record One of the Family he has consistently proven why he has taken home so many awards, including ARIAs and Golden Guitars.

 

Son of a .... Railway Man comes from the last album and while at the time it was not chosen as a stand-out track, it certainly reminded me of those that were: St Marys Fair, All I Want For Christmas is the Rain, One Child is Born, Greedy Guts. Son of a... Railway Man chugs along like the old trains of which Graeme and his families were a part, with a traditional country beat and a traditional country-fiddle sound. It should certainly rise in the most-added charts on regional and country-music radio!
