8. Jones β To The Bone
by MIKE DAVIES on 11 JUNE, 2014
in FOLK | ROOTS | AMERICANA ALBUM REVIEWS
Under both his solo soubriquet and as Miracle Mile, erstwhile teacher singer-songwriter Trevor Jones has a thing for break-up albums. Loss and the collapse of a relationship anchored both of his bandβs last two releases and was a constant presence on his two previous solo albums. The same applies here on To The Bone, a collection of songs born of what he calls βa period of instabilityβ, the lyrical content ranging between bewilderment, resigned acceptance, regret, reflection, longing and hope, the songs couched in uncluttered, simple arrangements, inspired by Paul Buchananβs Mid-Air and pared βback to the boneβ (the writing process and the therapeutic nature of silence documented in the part-spoken Cabin Fever) to mirror the rawness of the emotions.
As ever, heβs joined by regular contributor Melvin Duffy on pedal steel and dobro as well as Miracle Mile partner Marcus Cliffe, who shares production and arrangement credits as well as playing everything else save acoustic guitar. For those familiar with Jonesβ work, itβll come as no surprise to hear itβs hushed and melancholic, his gift for folk and country shaded melody and open-heart lyrics undimmed, his soft, dusty tones variously evocative of Martyn Joseph, Ricky Ross. Paddy McAloon and the more wistful side of Costello. For those yet to discover him, these are just some of the pleasures in store.
βHand on heart, I never saw this coming,β he sings on the opening lines of the albumβs bitter-sweet first track, Phil the Hat, a nostalgic reflection on friendship as he adds βletβs raise a glass to our younger selves, remembering how it used to beβ and sets the tone for what follows. Both etched out on piano, in the achingly tender Dream Horses memories provide both solace and hurt while the descending scales of Pardon Me addresses the confusion of being blindsided as he replays every detail of βthe how and the where and the whenβ.
Underpinned by pedal steel, bells and a shuffling rhythm, Some Kind of Surrender kicks up the tempo slightly, the seeming rapprochement of βI reach out to you, reaching back to meβ offset by βwe wave ourselves goodbyeβ.
The mood oscillates throughout; on the drone-backed Books To Bed he sings βwe could discuss every word that weβve read or we could just make loveβ while the yearningly brief Man Behind The Moon details those telling signs (βthereβs something in the way you worry with your hairβ) of a fracturing relationship whereas Fireworks celebrates the hopes and dreams that light up the grey skies as he defiantly sings βIβm done with defeat, let the victories beginβ.
Elsewhere, Lucinda Drayton adds vocals to the soulful Angelicana, an Americana-shaded number about a restless spirit featuring slide guitar and, perhaps, a passing hint of Just My Imagination, Glimpsed And Gone is a piano instrumental behind which can be heard the sound of a police siren and the title track features the sort of Celtic choral chorus to have the crowd swaying with their scarves on the terraces of Bruised Romantics Utd.
Having weathered the storm, the album closes on a hopeful note with light peering through the clouds; Jones singing βI will walk beside you and you will know Iβm there and I will touch you gently to comfort your despairβ to a backdrop of keening pedal steel on the devotional Somewhere North Of Here and, on slow waltz Row, βI knew from the moment I saw you, that you were my forever girlβ¦will you be sailing away or β¦row row row the boat gently back to meβ before the piano notes fade soothingly away to the sound of distant female laughter and the heart lives to beat another day.
Get Low
Jones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la da da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine (la da da-da)
To get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love
So, lean your seat back, buckle up, it's a long ride
You gotta get low, so you can get high
I woke up on the floor and the sky is pouring
I'm getting tired of feeling like this every morning
I looked into the mirror and I can't ignore it
I'm feeling the weight, hey
There ain't no brushing off the world on your shoulder
I figured out that you go under to get over
So, if you're someone out there looking for some closure (yeah, hey)
Well, I gotta say
You gotta get low, so you can get high
You gotta scrub the ground if you wanna touch the sky
Singing la da da-da, you need the rain before the sunshine (la da da-da)
To get by
You gotta get down, so you can get up
All you really need is a little bit of love

Get high (ah get it, ah get it, ah get it get it)

When you get low, when you get low
