Alexander Gold is Darling Boy, the actor, writer, musician has penned a beauty in Air Conditioned Gypsey. This tromp through the alt-guitar gold mine is a fantastic listen and energetic dialogue of carefree lifestyle and finding hope and a positive outlook in the face of adversity.
I love the not-so-subtle styling of The Smith’s; the guitar is wound tight in this jangly bracelet of eclectic Tele-twang. It’s beautiful. The guitar tone on the track is really quite rich and so well balanced with the other instrumentation. There’s also a fantastical falsetto and outro that brings Gold’s vocal to the forefront, where it really belongs.
