Reviews:
"Englishman Richard Morgan is a published poet and has also been making documentaries for Swiss TV for the past 15 years. Recently, he decided to embark on his third creative career, writing and singing songs in a blues/jazz vein. Recently, he released an EP called Letting Go (invisipics). Morgan wrote all four songs and is accompanied by pianist Leo Chevalley.
The four songs are in the style of ’30s to ’50s jazz/blues and show Morgan to be a talented lyricist with wit, charm, and intellect. “Life’s A Roller Coaster” is a song of optimism that we can all relate to, about how the bad times in life are soon supplanted by good times. “Falling Down” is a lively and humorous little love song, and “Big Bad Man” is a harrowing, yet hilarious tale of encountering a fearsome chap in France. The title cut is a reflective track about growing old and letting things go that have held you back.
Morgan has a warm, engaging voice that suits his material well. He should only improve with more experience. As mentioned, his lyrics are first-rate and sometimes remind you of those mid 20th century jazzy standards. Chevalley provides excellent, sympathetic fills and the occasional solo.
Fans of jazzy piano-driven blues will find Letting Go to be a pleasant listening experience."
