Richard Walters – Weather Song (Youtube)

You might be thinking that Bitter FIngers is almost entirely made up of posts by the latest and hottest electro starlets that I happen to like. And for the most part, you’d be right. However, when a track like this comes along, it takes you completely aback.

I’ve got a soft spot for acoustic guitar tracks when you can hear the strings being hit, when you can tell that this was recorded by an artist and a computer didn’t take all the credit. That’s certainly true of Weather Song, in which Richard Walters has put together a beautifully atmospheric slice of music that I can’t get enough of.

Get yourself a cup of tea and have a listen – I defy you not to smile.
