If you haven't heard any of the new Robyn Hitchcock yet, you will want to listen to the two songs below. These lush compositions continue a string of great works by the 58 year old. You will be able to find them on 'Tromsø, Kaptein,' a record Hitchcock says he "sung in English for Norwegian ears." It will ship beginning May 3 on, naturally, the Norwegian label Hype City Recordings. If you preorder from Hitchcock's site now, you will receive a digital download of the album immediately. 'Tromsø, Kaptein' continues a prolific streak of albums, free downloads and other projects that, in my opinion, marks the most interesting five-year period of his career. If you're an old fan of his and have lost touch through the years, do yourself a favor and at least get 'Goodnight Oslo.' It made my top 20 albums of 2009.
