“I came to know Red River Dialect through my travels to Cornwall, and their music has come to signify everything wild and shambolic and heartrendingly, unfairly beautiful that I understand about that coast. Theirs is a focused longing, a confusion of soul, a visionary lamentation that fixes them in blood to The Waterboys' Fisherman's Blues, Talk Talk's Laughing Stock, and Fairport Convention's Full House—not in sound, no, nothing so small as that, but in spirit. I have known songwriter David Morris to grapple with God—as have I—but I suspect he may recognize this manner of Lord: Then every man of every clime that prays in his distress/ Prays to the human form divine/ Love Mercy Pity Peace. William Blake, another mystic, another Englishman, another sinner, wrote that, and I suspect Red River Dialect know the man. If you listen to one record from England this year, let it be theirs. I'm so glad to know it.”
