With his seemingly endless capacity for creating compositions which have an alluring quality, and which are often wrapped in a mesmerizing arrangement that pays homage to those towering sound constructions made by Phil Spector, Shadow Morton, Brian Wilson and the likes, veteran New York polymath Marc Jonson is also deserving of household name status. Involved in making records since the mid-sixties, Jonson's latest long-play collection is a particularly special glimpse into a secret stash of recordings made between 1979 and 2012 in his tiny flat on Cornelia St., New York's Greenwich Village, during the years we spend living (and surviving) there. These tracks are only now seeing the light of day, with many featuring Jonson at his melodic, awe-inspiring best; soul-baring, honest and vulnerable. Spanning these grooves are such delightfully told stories as "The Man Who Walks On Air," "November Paint Brush," the atypical jazz stylings of the instrumental title cut, plus the revealing light that is "The Moon" and the magical, wide eyed beauty as conjured by "Ages Of Wonder."
