D Rok Off-kilter delightfulness!
While the title-track is why I bought this EP, and is certainly worth the price of admission, I can't help but feel like the B-side is the true star of this show. I love it more every time I hear it. Favorite track: Can We Rebuild Our City.

about

Sometimes a record comes along that is a wonderful anomaly that really is all about the music. Silver Leaf recently appeared on the radar via obscuro diggers on both sides of the Atlantic and landed with a Hey!

What is known about Silver Leaf, beyond that it was a short-lived mid-80s project out of Cincinnati, Ohio, is that it features ex-Zephyr keyboardist John Faris, working alongside the mysterious vocalist Silvia Leaf.

The difference between the blues and occasional psychedelic rock of early 70s Boulder, Colorado’s Zephyr and the lo-fi recordings of Silver Leaf are striking, but in Hey! and Can We Rebuild Our City?, the power of the ballad and strong playing of John, is wrapped in mid-80s, mid-States lo fi heaven.

Whether a non-de-plume, Ms Leaf’s searing, innocent vocals fly above John’s keys and programming. Hey!’s repetitive exhalations act like a mantra to a party, while tom’s chime in accompaniment. Here it comes!

Can We Rebuild Our City? starts with Faris’ forlorn intro before crashing percussion heads to some kind of wonderful, as Leaf questions a calls to hearts.

Releasing just 3 singles, Silver Leaf’s music is unique and essential, an experience and a delight to present.
