PAUL KELLY

Greatest Hits-Songs From the South Volumes 1 & 2

2012-01-01

With seventeen albums and numerous film scores under his belt, Paul Kelly might be the most famous folk singer-songwriter I’ve never heard of. I guess it’s to be expected that his greatest hits release should be a double disc. (The first disc covers the years 1985-1997 and the second disc covers 1998-2008.) With a full band backing thoughtful vocals, think Billy Bragg, Robyn Hitchcock, or John Wesley Harding to peg this Australian. Rebecca Ruth
