David Kilgour - A Feather In The Engine LP xx1964 GABRIELLE FERRERRecorded at home and mostly alone (The Verlaines Graeme Downes provides lush string arrangements), David Kilgour once called A Feather in the Engine, his first album for Merge, the most solo LP Ive made. Interpolating his genius for guitar pop through acoustic guitars and gorgeous instrumentals, its melodies unfold gently, suggesting that the 13 songs here, written over the course of four years, were searching Kilgour as much as he was searching them.
