***A half-dozen records down the road, P.G. SIX is a long way from the rustic home of his debut, Parlor Tricks and Porch Favorites. Sparks set off at the conclusion of 2007’s Slightly Sorry—flashes of full-bodied electrical folk-rock—fire Starry Mind’s arc through our skies. But the change shouldn’t surprise. This evolution was openly predicted way back on his second album, The Well of Memory. Starry Mind picks up the tale with a fully electrified Celtic traditional and dances lightly forward, with guitar lines chiming and entwining above while drums and bass deliver thumping kicks below. PAT “P.G. Six” GUBLER is still enmeshed in the mystic and the unknowable even as he feels and knows the fullness of his rock phase. Applying everything he has learned to this latest passage, he relaxes as he dissolves his latest epistles into the fresh, clean, communal air. (STREET DATE - 8/23/2011)
