Music Archive » Pop » British Pop » ALAN BURGE: Empty Lessons
Hailing from the north of Ireland, this talented guitarist has at last moved into full time songwriting and production. Each song is really quite different, but generically this is a rock/pop album, full of strong melody and unusual musical departures, topped by an elvis costello/joe jackson vocal style.

Here's what a few musicians make of it:

"Crash" is a top track with some great insight - its great when you can get real tension from some music" Jason Cooper, Cambridge UK

"these are cleverly arranged and well-performed songs with good lyrical content and some lovely atmospheric moments" John Harris, SOS Magazine UK

"The Make Up Song - Wonderful instrumentation and arrangement. I'm truly amazed" Chris Holtmeier, Minneapolis

[re: Make-up song]"There seem to be more influences
in this song than I can stand to think about" Paul Rayfield, Hunter Valley Australia
