PEGGY VAN ZALM - REVIVAL
6 songs with total
playing time 25 minutes and 57 seconds
"With REVIVAL
there is a broader frame of reference~which is to do with the
state of affairs not only in Australia but in the world, within
industrialized culture, how there's a need for a balance and
to make positive use of what indigenous cultures have to offer
... the Revival song is very much about the reconciliation process,
within humanity and also within nature. The idea isn't new and
its isn't complicated it's about the harmonising and balancing
of intentions in a celebratory sort of way."
Some Views
and Reviews on REVIVAL
"Powerful, folk/pop
played with finesse and integrity from an artist whose voice
is rich and earthy. It takes a couple of listens to get past
the beauty of van Zalm's voice and fully appreciate the quality
of the songwriting underneath. These are songs about the spirit,
the land and feelings that well up inside of us as we work to
blalance lives wrought with the stresses of living in a big city
world."Mark Garnaut - Conscious Living
"With the comfort of some
extraordinary musicians including Richard Mellick( keys), Blair
Greenburg(djembe), Svetlana Bunic(piano accordian), Chris Roodenrys(electric
guitar), Debra Anderson(double bass), Warwick Factor (midi bass)
and Buzz Bidstrup (acoustic guitar, drums, backing vocals and
production)~ Peggy sings with a real depth of range. Her vocal
kept me on the edge, waiting for that wail that rarely comes,
great control at retreating from the obvious. REVIVAL remained
on our multi disc player for some three weeks - a great feat
considering the competition in this house, and the first six
or so listens it still felt like I'd heard it for the first time,
it is not the album full of hooks and radio friendly schmaltz
- this is heart felt understated talent. Revival features deep
and rich musicality, I have enjoyed my growing rapport with this
album and Peggy's subtle, sensual and powerful delivery."Kaeleen
Hunter, METTAMUSE/SINGING UP THE WOMEN
" Revival
was produced by Buzz Bidstrup(Diana Ah Naid, Gangajang) and sources
much of its artistic inspiration from the Australian landscape.
Revival vibes with a positive energy, whilst its instrumentation
(including piano accordion, double bass and traditional african
percussion) adds depth and sophistication."Monty James,
