Still dreaming harder, still lost in music.
Eight albums in, Michigan-born tune devotee Kelley Stoltz remains reassuringly 'cult', the kind of endearing but unbankable enthusiasms that once led him to cover the whole of Echo & The Bunnymen's Crocodiles mostly still prompting a "Who?" To Dreamers has post punk traits that occasionally decouple him from his ongoing '60s pop and psychedelia influences (try the superb, Devo-meets-Tom-Petty-like Keeping The Flame), but the tangible sense that he's doing music purely for the love of it adds extra shine to what's already ace. Mellotron, the seasoned psychonaut's fairy dust, ornaments the infectious Pine Cone, I Remember You Were Wild is top-notch garage-pop, and 68-year-old pysch-pop pioneer "Big Boy" Pete Miller, drops by to guest on a cover of his 1965 original, Baby I've Got News For You. Keeping the flame indeed.
