Americana folk, un disco prezioso

Cantautore, ma anche rocker, Casey arriva da Minneapolis. Qui fa il verso a Springsteen, con un disco di solide rock ballads

Mappe Of è il nome della band del cantautore canadese Tom Meikle. Un personaggio, al di fuori di ogni considerazione. Meikle è al secondo disco, e la sua visione musicale è decisamente originale. The Isle of Ailynn è un disco construito con idee e fantasia, popolato di paesaggi inventati, pieni di strane flora e fauna, fenomeni misteriosi ed avvenimneti mitologici. Fantasia messa in musica, in modo personale, con indubbio tocco melodico ed una manciata di canzoni molto interessanti.

Recorded October 1999 to January 2000.
