Review:
A very impressive debut
I am really impressed by this album. It is full of fine songs, very
well performed and especially as a debut album it stands out for its
quality.
Jess Jocoy writes
very good songs. They are tuneful and listenable but they also have
real lyrical substance. The opening track is entitled Existential
Crossroads which gives you the idea that this isn’t just a lot of
moon/June cliché and nor is it pretentious; with intelligent,
insightful lyrics Jocoy gives us songs which bear repeated listening
and have brought me back to this album several times since my first
hearing.
Even at a time when
we are exceptionally blessed with high-class female
singer-songwriters, I think Such A Long Way holds its own very well.
I can recommend it warmly and I’ll be looking out for her work in
the future.
