Perhaps a more suitable title for this comprehensive retrospective by New Jersey-bred, California native Neal Casal is What Has Taken Everybody So Long to Hear This Artist? It's been 10 years since Casal's exceptional debut Fade Away Diamond Time, yet it and his six other full-length albums have gone virtually unheard, at least on this side of the Atlantic. Our second chance comes in this 18-song, two-disc showcase (including a bonus DVD documentary which also includes 14 audio takes of demos and solo acoustic performances). Casal's no-frills studio approach leaves his music with an air of timelessness and skillfully links to Neil Young's early seventies sessions, the Band's holed up creativity and the California soul of Gene Clark and Gram Parsons. A sought-after session man, Casal is equally nimble at harder-edged country-rockers and folk-leaning ballads, and his nightclub-scorched piano rendition of Johnny Thunders' "It's Not Enough" is a punk-rock tribute to an off-the-radar artist–paid by one in the same.by Scott Holter
