Splinter - Two Man Band
Review by Carlos Molina
The album Two Man Band by Splinter has received positive reviews from music critics and fans alike. The album showcases the duo's talent in creating a unique blend of folk, rock, and blues music.
The album's opening track, "Rolling Hills," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its catchy guitar riffs and upbeat tempo. Other standout tracks include "Broken Glass," which features soulful vocals and a haunting melody, and "Gone Too Long," a heartfelt ballad that showcases the duo's songwriting skills.
One of the album's strengths is its stripped-down sound, which allows the duo's musical chemistry to shine through. The harmonies between the two vocalists are particularly impressive, adding depth and emotion to each song.

Summary by Carlos Molina
Comments
excellent cover of a great song.
Just found this. Love it. I had the great fortune to play in a band with Bill prior to his moving to Portugal. Sad to hear of his passing. Great singer and a lovely person
I wish a record label would remaster and reissue the Splinter albums on CD. SH Why this band never caught on is beyond me.
The great late George Harrison on a smooth slide guitar:)
Place I Love and Harder to Live have been recently remastered. Recently had this info from a Splinter contact and have subsequently ordered them myself. Check out Big Pink.
I met Bill in Portugal, is now a great friend of mine,still a great singer,great upload great song.Bruno,Algarve,Portugal
Thank you Bruno, indeed a great song and singer. Appreciate your comment. Steve
@kinavian74 Hello Steve, Hope that you are well? I was talking to Bill on Saturday about this production which we both love. However he did suggest that if that there were some pictures of that great emergency landing of that passenger jet on the Hudson river in January 2009. it would be complement the rest of this superb effort. Just a thought!
@albainbridge1 - Al, wish it were that simple. Do agree with reference to the Hudson in the song a tribute to that amazing pilot would have been nice. That was a real feel good time and we apart from the Chilean miners we don't get enough of those moments. The weather is depressing but apart from that am fine, still churning out stuff. Hope you too are well and enjoying that lovely country and villa. Best wishes, Steve
@albainbridge1 Al, Hope the weather improves, tomorrow looks the best day of the week. Please send me a mail on You Tube with Thomas's new video and to be sure will comment as it is bound to be good. Safe journey back whenever. Steve
@kinavian74 Thanks anyway Steve. Still it's super as it is! I'm in England at present Brrrrrr. So know what you mean but glad that you are well and keeping up the good work. My lad Thomas will be uploading one of the songs he wrote and sung himself over the next few weeks I'd appreciate any comments you may have. Anyway from a cold Norfolk cheerio for now. Al
