-
Rare third (and last) solo recording from Montreal composer, singer, pianist, violinist, actor & producer Lewis Furey.
On "The Sky Is Falling", the enigmatic, classically-trained Furey displays a sometimes dark, sometimes bright...but always ionate art-rock performance with his eclectic Lou Reed-like vocals, sumptuously arranged with a full suite of instruments (guitars, organ, violin, banjo, sax, clarinette, French horns, piano, drums, marimbas and congas) and an excellent background choral that includes Carole Laure.
Recorded and released simultaneously with Carol Laure's debut LP, "Alibis"
