December, 17 2009 09:00 PM - Cellar Door - HARPER SIMON (son of PAUL SIMON) / The Chapin Sisters
101 W. Main St., Visalia, 93291 - $10

Harper Simon is the work of an exceptionally gifted singer-songwriter and guitarist who’s clearly discovered who he is and found his own way and as a recording artist in a time when the very concept of recording an album seems threatened. For Harper Simon, the opportunity to make his own album here was a matter of no small consequence. “The long playing album is the great artistic medium invented in the second half of the 20th century,” says Simon. “The long playing album is not just ten songs thrown together randomly. It has an arc. It has a structure. It is the attempt to make ten songs that are all as good as each other, and fit together in a seamless whole. Long playing albums like Sgt Peppers, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Pet Sounds, Blonde On Blonde, Sticky Fingers -- these albums have helped define our culture. When I was making this record, I was very conscious of making a record that was an homage to the LP.” The Harper Simon that emerges here as a significant new artist with talent to burn and a real seriousness of purpose understands full well that “there really are more wishes than stars” -- to steal a typically eloquent phrase from another standout song Simon wrote with acclaimed novelist Ben Okri. And so he has taken the time and care to make an album built to last. And this is only really the beginning.
