Richard Youngs' Sapphie record is beautiful.
 

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

If you haven't heard it then please do.

I can give anyone a megaupload link but it's beauty is enchanted through the format of vinyl.

"Sapphie consists of three extended compositions dedicated to the memory of a pet Alsatian (for whom the record is named); using only a nylon-stringed guitar and his amazing vocals, Youngs crafts three gorgeous, desolate and heartbreaking ballads -- throughout almost 40 minutes, the record never ceases to be stunningly beautiful, making an incredibly strong entry into the long line of Scottish singer/songwriters to compose in this intimate, strongly melodic style. Sapphie is, in most respects, the most pop-oriented and traditionally beautiful piece in Youngs' catalog, and should appeal across all genre distinctions as one of the most unceasingly lovely and unflinchingly intimate recordings in a long, long while."

i back this 100%

It's a very good headphones album I might add.

Many thanks for the post. I'll try giving this a listen, looks interesting to say the least. I'm also reading this interview...

I only wish I had the funds right now to get this in vinyl format. So, a megaupload link would be very appreciated.

Enjoy.

Thanks again!

Now you can go listen to it and get back to me with your opinion!

But for now, I think it's time for sleep. : )

yes hes good.

INDEED!!

i've seen him play twice doing a capella folk songs, rubbish!

Shut up.

I saw him do a cappela songs as well, and I concur that it was rubbish. He's capable of goodness mind you.

That's hardly the sort of stuff that he's known for. Doo doo doo do do do do do doo doo..........

well it seems that's what he wants to be known for now

You'll have to cover your ears, then.

downloaded it, it was truly amazing

thankyou very much!!!
