what other people have said about bob fischer...
from the LiNK magazine, may 2005:
"You really ought to check out the debut single of mr bob fischer,
the rather cheerily titled 'to the end of the world' ep. clever compositions,
tidy arrangements swinging in mood and style from the rather cocktail sophisticated
elvis costello-ish ballad 'to the end of the world' to the outrageous and
rather rakish 'footwork' - a hilarious song, a tit for tat and spat between
fischer and his long suffering-sounding beau sorcha. then there are two
garrulous bar room bloaters in 'a hundred pounds' and 'brown eyes'. 'brown
eyes' is a star spangled relationship with native american mysticism but
is he serious? every century needs a noel coward, bob fischer just landed
the part'
from bbc tees online, may 2005:
"when someone records songs like these, they deserve to be played at
every available opportunity. is he any good? 'good' isn't the word. bob's
music is wonderful, please please please give it a listen..."
from
the middlesbrough evening gazette, april 2005:
"lovingly recorded on his home studio, bob fischer's remarkable debut
single 'to the end of the world' comes somewhere off centre in the world
of thinking person's pop. The title track is a glorious rolling ballad and
'footwork' is an hilarious spat between partners elton and kiki dee for
the 21st century. buy the single to hear the other songs, you'll not be
disappointed by the results."
from the middlesbrough evening gazette, november 2004:
"a quick mention of bob fischer's birthday gig at the waiting room
in eaglescliffe last sunday - every bit as palatable as the food. this all
round, fun-sized performer entertained us with songs about b-movie stars,
us election landslides and robert mitchum"
