Ross Wilson: I Come In Peace

Sydney: Daily Telegraph's top Rock/Pop writer Kathy McCabe gives 'I Come In Peace' a big rap in today's Weekend liftout on the very day we're launching the album in Sydney at The Basement...good timing Kathy!

"I COME IN PEACE - Ross Wilson

It's not surprising that the opening track, an instant rocker, may conjure Bob Dylan and his Modern Times record. Wilson accomplishes the same level of excellence with this collection, a rich, honest and often raw record which casts a wise middle-aged eye on rock's usual subjects and finds something beautifully simple to say about it all. Let's hope we can all rock with as much conviction in our sixties.

VERDICT: Emotive"

Kathy also has this to say in her Gig Picks column touting tonight's Basement album launch showcase:

"The dual ARIA Hall Of Fame inductee has booked in to the venerable Sydney venue to launch his 15th studio record I Come In Peace.  It's a cracker, which confirms songwriters must indeed deal with the devil because Wilson has lost none of his potency as a lyricist or music man."
