Our Rating:
Hillbilly Erotica is the follow up to Sir Richard Bishops Hillbilly Ragas that came out last year. He is still best known for his work in the Sun City Girls. This time he has mainly improvised all the solo acoustic guitar pieces to accompany his nocturnal activities, this is an album for anyone who thinks Bluegrass guitars are the most passionate sound on earth, wanting them to soundtrack the Pornhub videos they watch.

The album opens with Lick Skillet that has nothing to do with Fox & Friends favourite Christian metal act. But is about a far more depraved southern fetish of licking Skillets in a purely sexual manner, while Sir Richard provides the pace you should be licking that skillet at.

Finger, Tennessee is what happens when you dip your finger into some Tennessee gold and what you do with that finger afterwards, sucking and carefully caressed strings building the tension, building with each and every dip of that finger.

Sweet Lips, Spiritual is the perfect length of time for you to get totally spiritual with those sweet Lips you desire so much, the feel of them against your skin, slowly finding a way for you to reach spiritual nirvana.

Back Of Forty Lashes which in this context means, we are gazing lovingly at the red welts on the back of the sub, who requested their Master or Mistress to administer the forty lashes on them, in the sort of club that Sir Richard Bishop can sit in a corner accompanying the action with intricate, Davey Graham style, complex improvisations for the crack of that whip to sing out over, the 5 and a half minutes is of course the duration of the lashes.

Bride Of Rhythm Methodist takes a very Lutheran approach to the speedy finger picking riff and rhythmic action, keeping strict time with no deviation from the methodist's code. Finger Revisited slowly plunges a finger deep into the classical folk well of bucolic accompaniments, feeling marshy, getting damper, the pace picks up heading towards the peak.

Hookers Bend a place where playing a speedy Spanish guitar will always get you special attention, swirling your skirts, luring your prey with flamenco style twists and turns. The album closes with Postcoital Serenade slow picked gentle comedown, while you both drift off into Post Coital slumber and dreamworld where deft finger picking guitarists are always at your beck and call.
