"Between the Carolinas" is the debut album from Michigan based singer / songwriter Phil Barry. The sound of this album can be described as a mix of folkrock, California 60´s pop and Country music. There are traces of Simon and Garfunkel, The Jayhawks and Crosby Stills Nash and Young in Phil Barry´s songs. This is only a 9 track album with a running time of 29 minutes so you will find yourself listening to the first song again within no time. There´s a great moody feeling over "Between the Carolinas" and I like Barry´s voice quite a lot, a nice album so to speak. Highlights: The spaces, Between the Carolinas
Duran Duran — The band played at Birmingham´s Barberella´s nightclub so took their name from the villain of the cult Science Fiction film Barbarella, Dr. Durand-Durand.
