David's
second, brilliant album has a prevailing theme of love and romance.
The fact that he got married around the time of making this album is
perhaps no coincidence. Filled with tender love songs, such as
'Coming Down' and 'Mystery of Love', it is a beautiful, enduring
album. Many fans consistently claim Flesh as their favourite, for
reasons that ring through. This
album marked the start of David's collaboration with Clune, his
drummer. The effect was immediate and long-lasting, as he still
writes his songs with him.
Unfortunately,
David was going through yet more record label difficulties during
this album, which produced no singles, but did bring him over to
America, supporting Radiohead on tour. It was then that he gained
much of his fanatical support Stateside.
Currently, Flesh
cannot be purchased over the Internet. If it is re-released, or a
link becomes available, we will feature it here.
