Review - Mitchell Shadlow “One of These Days”
album on ABC through EMI
It
has taken Mitchell Shadlow
ten years to get to this point in his career - the debut LP. But in that time
he has had the help of some big names in Australian country music: the late Stan
Coster, and the great Slim Dusty both
gave Mitchell his
first breaks, but the names on and behind “One
of These Days”, on ABC
through EMI, are testament
to a 24-year old who is going to be bigger than anyone could imagine.
“One of These Days” has all the hallmarks of an international success: Framed,
Cool Cow Cafe, Big Decision, the title track, and a cover of the old Stanglers
hit One Perfect Day that is much more
than a success as a country cross-over: a decidedly American sound from this
singer/songwriter of Singleton who is already “at the head of the pack”.
Saying
this just put more pressure on, but Mitchell Shadlow
is the next big thing in Country
music.
