Robyn Hitchcock “Robyn Hitchcock” (Yep Roc 2017)

April 24, 2017 Dave Jennings 0
Robyn Hitchcock releases his twenty first studio album, his first since 2014’s ‘The Man Upstairs’, and has chosen after all these years an eponymous title. “It’s ‘Introducing Robyn Hitchcock” he has said, working on the principle […]
