My Friend The Chocolate Cake's music can be seen to straddle the worlds of ambient and world music, with an emphasis on piano and violin-led acoustic music. My chum Keith Gibbons got me into them sometime in the mid-nineties and I've enjoyed picking up CDs ever since - a good starting point would be 2002's album Curious. Anyhow - I bought his (their debut) online last night and have been enjoying it since. The version of A Midlife's Tale I had on a sampler CD is totally different and this whole album (origionally from 1991) sounds as fresh as anything released in the last year.
