Details
[Edit]Bayou Moon is not dark and brooding, as the liner notes suggest, but it could be termed "ambient Delta blues," for much of the album features subtle Delta blues-based guitar playing over synthetic washes of sounds very reminiscent of Brian Eno's Music For Films and Fred Frith's Gravity. The opening epic-like composition resembles Mike Oldfield's work in its structure and guitar atmospherics; no wonder — Newman produced and engineered most of Oldfield's catalog. The instrumental "Bayou" was written, played, recorded and produced by Newman. This one-man show was released as part of Coda's mid-'80s new age "Landscape" series.
