MICHAEL FRANKS
Time Together
Shanachie

Twenty-one albums and thirty-eight years of being one of the most brilliant wordsmiths in the world of music, and now he’s managed to outdo himself on his 22nd release… TIME TOGETHER. Michael Franks, the man who captured our attention and delighted us with “Popsicle Toes” in 1976, still knows how to touch us emotionally, from his whimsical and playful first single, “Now That the Summer’s Here” to the sweet and deeply touching title song… a memorial to his beloved pet Dachshund, Flora. The intelligent wit, wisdom, and biting commentary are all here in this new album, together with the romance and imagery we’ve come to expect and to cherish from Mr. Franks… tempered with perhaps a heightened wistfulness that’s borne out of the passage of time, and best expressed in “If I Could Make September Stay.” Bravo, Michael Franks! TIME TOGETHER embraces beautifully all that we love about your music! ~SCOTT O'BRIEN
