5 out of 5 stars Its charm never diminishes.......2006-12-22

Brilliant album, brilliant first review. I've been listening to this since 1972, and its charm never diminishes. This is one of those rare albums that makes you feel deeply while retaining a high level of artistry. Magic in a bottle. I always pair this in my mind with the Strawbs' Grave New World, but this is even finer.

5 out of 5 stars Humble High Art.......2004-05-26

Recorded between Strawbs projects in the early 70's, Two Weeks lacks none of the shimmering genius evident in the band's best works (particularly of the Grave New World era). Employing the likes of Rick Wakeman on keys and Roger Glover on bass -- without forgetting the astonishing Miller Anderson on electric gtr among others -- Cousins serves up a feast of songs that will leave any Strawbs fan breathless.

The main departure is in the personal dimension these songs inhabit, making them both enchantingly private and bewitchingly mystical. Although somewhat more stripped down than the usual Strawbs outing, Two Weeks is no less intricate and ambitious. Texture variations, tempo changes, poetic lyrics, rich atmospheres and moods, and a decidely rootsy-ethereal equation behind the warm arrangements all add to make Two Weeks one of Cousins' most inspired set of songs. With every piece shining with skilled & original craftsmanship and composition, Cousins displays his talents in full flight, reaching dizzying peaks with the mesmerizing "Blue Angel" and the equally provocative "Ways And Means."

In spite of its largely acoustic backdrop, there's more power and subtlety here than in most group efforts. An album of awe-inspiring creativity, sweep, and ambition as well as of a touching personal worldview, Two Weeks in unmissable to any fan of the Strawbs fan or, for that matter, of anyone who likes their high art humble.
