Hunter Muskett - Every Time You Move [Cherry Tree - 2009]

Hunter Muskett were an English folk pop outfit who`s debut album “Every Time You Move” has become highly respected, sort after & valued since it`s release in 1970. This is its first reissue on CD format of the album that has being boot-legged many times over the years, here the album recording is taken from the original master tapes.

The whole albums is very comforting, rich & often harmonic with layers of acoustic guitar that`s more often then not swooned by strings and mournful/ thoughtful yet harmonic poetic male vocals & harmonies; at times it brings to mind a more British take on Simon & Garfunkel or a more folk take on Bread. There`s often a nice autumnal, very English feel about it all & a  real feeling of 70`s Melancholy nudging the edge of the songs- yet it never gets too dark or out there as it always sticks to been approachable & pleasing. The only negative  thing I do find with the album as a whole is sometimes the string work takes over too much & threatens to swamp the acoustic guitar rich Sonics; but thankfully there`s only a few moments like this & for the most part it`s a very pleasing & melodic slice of often grand folk pop.

To top it all off the album comes with a very informative booklet which detail the projects history, reprints old album reviews, along with full lyrics & stills. So in finishing up “Every Time You Move” is a often very pleasing, yet melancholy tinged slice of 70`s pop folk that feels very suited to autumnal walks or cosiness by a crackling log fire staring out at a crisp winter English landscape
