Album Review: Paul Brady – Unfinished Business

Paul Brady, “Unfinished Business” (Proper Records)- Strabane born Brady may be in his seventies now, but the rather belated follow-up to 2010’s highly regarded “Hooba Dooba” captures the work of a distinctive artist  who’s still  operating at something approaching the peak of his considerable  performing powers – By Kevin Bryan. The compelling sense of righteous indignation which fuelled gems such as “Nothing But The Same Old Story”  during the early eighties has  gradually given way to  a much more mellow and reflective approach to music-making over the years, and Brady is in particularly fine fettle on the two traditional ballads showcased here, “The Cocks Are Crowing” and “Lord Thomas and Fair Ellender.”
