The 1984 Listening Post - Robyn Hitchcock - I Often Dream of Trains

Robyn Hitchcock - I Often Dream of Trains


#247
September 1984
Robyn Hitchcock 
I Often Dream of Trains 
2.75 out of 5

I never got the Hitchcock love. I think of his fauxetry as similar to that member of the band who isn’t a great songwriter but keeps soldiering on even when the band’s broken up and his songs are all “on the nose” with an air of self importance that isn’t deserved. 
This album hasn’t changed that. 
Is there anything as terrible as “Furry Green Atom Bowl”? No.
