Title: Neon Philharmonic Post by: artie on December 29, 2005, 11:11:33 AM Anyone here into "The Moth Confesses", the lush melodic pop masterpiece by Tupper Saussy (aka Neon Philharmonic, when paired with vocalist Ron Gant)?
I think it is a bit pretentious, maybe, but otherwise it is fantastic and a joy to listen to. The old time piano playing by Saussy (especially on "Little Sparrow") adds to the charm. I have the Sundazed version with the bonus tracks, and "Heighdy Ho Princess" and "Flowers For Your Pillow" are gorgeous singles which bubbled under (actually, Princess hit #95, I believe). "Morning Girl" parts I & II are phenomenal. And the gorgeous longing of "Midsummer's Night" is potent. Saussy then became a tax exile and wrote books. What an eclectic man. Quite talented. Anyone??
