	TrouserPress.com :: Richard Hawley
		A son of Sheffield steel, the very British Richard Hawley, a sometimes guitar-player for the Longpigs, Pastels and Pulp, has mined those late-'60s/early-'70s production paragons of sense and sensibility (think of records by Petula Clark, Serge Gainsbourg, Jimmy Webb, Marty Robbins, Dean Martin) to build sumptuous, slightly overblown albums of elaborate pop.
		Hawley consolidates his considerable talents (he plays most of the instruments) with a searching that is emotionally elemental and intellectually stimulating.
		Hawley has become more than a singing/songwriting crooner: he has become a harbor in stormy nights.

		Hawley insists his mind is full only with “confused thoughts and Guinness”, but when he sings, he does so in a voice that’s deep and low, and does not lie.
		Richard was raised in Sheffield, England, the son of a steelworker and grew up listening to folks such as Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley.
		Hawley half-joked that he was asked to join Pulp because he was 'the commonest person' the band knew.

	Richard Hawley: Coles Corner: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Hawley himself, former touring guitarist for Pulp and member of the second-tier Britpop band Longpigs, is forthcoming about his music's origins.
		Hawley's style, his sturdy baritone singing songs that combine hints of country with pre-rock pop and orchestral flourishes overlaid with healthy dollop of reverb, has a robust appeal.
		Hawley resides deep inside this material, writing songs with the melodic muscle to stand up next to standards.

	Richard Hawley: Lowedges - PopMatters Music Review
		If you're one of the small number of people who knew who Richard Hawley is over the past seven or eight years, you probably only knew him by name, merely as the guitarist in Britpop flash-in-the-pan Longpigs, and in recent years, as the touring second guitarist for Pulp.
		Hawley inhabits a world that doesn't seem to exist anymore; much like filmmaker David Lynch, his music is contemporary, but yearns for a more innocent time, a world of crooning pop ballads, motorcycles, and sitting inside on rainy nights with a pretty girl.
		On the ethereal "The Only Road", Hawley gets Cohenesque with his stirring imagery, softly singing, "The only road I walk alone, where beauty nails me to her cross / Bleeding from my hands and feet I whisper that my love is lost / I water flowers in the rain, I dance beneath your silver flames".

	Amazon.com: Coles Corner: Music: Richard Hawley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Richard Hawley spent the ‘90s primarily as a guitarist with Pulp and Longpigs, and contributing in-studio for the likes of Beth Orton and Robbie Williams.
		Richard Hawley -a favorite of Nancy Sinatra and Ryan Adams- may just have earned a place in the lineage of singers and songwriters who have a legitimate gift for genuine romanticism, in a tradition wide enough to include Bacharach, Scott Walker, Dion and Roy Orbison.
		Hawley has a distinct voice tone and sense of phrasing that can conjure up the many moods of love that many of us have felt, and that those people mentioned before have so memorably expressed.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Richard Hawley: Coles Corner
		After making a name for himself with the Longpigs and as Pulp's touring guitarist in the late 1990s, Hawley stepped out of the Britpop spotlight to craft singer/songwriter records that pay homage to the songcraft of artists such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison.
		Hawley has the slow, sensitive gospel Elvis down ("Who's Going To Shoe Your Pretty Little Feat"), and he does a fine job playing a slow country song as Cash would have done ("Wading Through The Water").
		Hawley knows where he fits in among other singer/songwriters, and he's certainly aware of his roots.

	richard-hawley Mp3 Albums Review
		Richard Hawley spent the and#145;90s primarily as a guitarist with Pulp and Longpigs, and contributing in-studio for the likes of Beth Orton and Robbie Williams.
		What Hawley is doing here is turning cliches around and upside down, perfectly respectable in my book, and singing them with the kind of integrity that honors the emotions behind the otherwise stock imagery.
		Lowedges sees Hawley sticking to the template he established on his two previous solo albums: knelling, tuneful ballads are built around an acoustic guitar and sung with a guttural croon that pitches somewhere between Edwyn Collins and the Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon.

		Born into a family of aviators, it was only natural that Richard would spend his life in the sky.
		Richard considers computer manipulation and fabrication of false images by combining separate photographs to be dishonest.
		To disect a photograph into minute detail as a means of describing the feeling it emotes is as futile as trying to explain the taste of chocolate.

	Richard Hawley - dublin - music
		Richard Hawley brings his brilliant collection of songs to Whelans on Monday, the 1st of May.
		Richard Hawley has been lauded by music critics since the release of his debut mini album, Richard Hawley in 2001 and his two subsequent records, the elegant Late Night Final and the magisterial Lowedges.
		But not too soon we hope, as Hawley fans would like to bask in the intimate sound of one of music's best-kept secrets a little longer before the man finds the success his formidable cannon of work merits.

	RICHARD HAWLEY LATE NIGHT FINAL ON SETANTA BY RICHARD HAWLEY
		Stepping from his bed in the still of the night to scratch out vague melodies of contrition and woe, Hawley is a man haunted by the memories of a bygone era, of trips to the market with his mum, of bingo halls in Blackpool on holiday and Scotty Moore licks learnt at his father's knee.
		With the release of his new solo album 'Late Night Final' (Setanta), Hawley not only steps out from the shadows, he confidently strides into the limelight with a collection of songs so elegant and graceful as to recall the best jazz, country and western and rhythm and blues artists of the 1940s and '50s.
		But Hawley's path to solo success was nearly left undiscovered until an extra week's worth of studio time was converted into a personal challenge to see if the perennial sideman could cut it with his own songs using his own voice.

	CLUAS Indie Album Reviews: Richard Hawley 'Late night final'
		If Richard Hawley, formerly of Pulp and the Longpigs, were to appear in a movie he would have surfaced briefly in "Summer Holiday", playing a dissolute soak taken in for a while by Cliff, Hank, and Una.
		In Richard Hawley's world it's as if the Beatles never existed.
		Hawley achieves the difficult task of walking the tightrope between sweet and sickly sweet, between sentiment and sentimentality.

	Richard Hawley: Coles Corner - PopMatters Music Review
		Richard Hawley has been on one hell of a run these last three or four years, but while his star is slowly starting to rise in the UK, in North America, few have noticed.
		After performing with Britpop group Longpigs during the mid-'90s, touring as a second guitarist with his friends in Pulp, and making a living as a session musician, the veteran Sheffield musician has finally come into his own as a solo artist, emerging as one of the finest singer-songwriters in the UK today.
		Whereas Hawley's previous two albums dipped into the past while retaining an understated, adult contemporary feel, his latest release, Coles Corner, heads full-bore into the vintage sounds of five decades ago, back to the days when Roy Orbison, Eddie Cochrane, Gene Vincent, and Johnny Cash were all in their prime.

	Richard Hawley - Born Under a Bad Sign : single review
		Richard Hawley's Coles Corner was one of the more life-affirming albums of last year.
		You've had a right life", Hawley looks at himself through the bottom of a whiskey bottle and berates himself for "sleeping late in the afternoon, playing your guitar".
		The affection of the habitual drunk permeates the song though, and the usual Hawley musical ingredients of laid back loveliness mean that this is four minutes of melancholic bliss.

	Bancroft Press - Praise for Richard Hawley's Paul and Juliana
		"Richard Hawley is a gifted writer, with an eye for the unlikely detail, an ear for the unexpected phrase.
		By choosing Lawrence as his narrator, himself a man out of his own time, Hawley injects an ethical dilemma of adult culpability into this story of adolescent love, which is arguably, and in this novel so obviously, the truest love we can know.
		Bravo to Richard Hawley for peeling away the layers of the adolescent experience to reveal a core of beauty, honesty, and idyllic love.”

	Richard Hawley: Cole's Corner (2005): Reviews
		Hawley's empathic delivery reveals the indelible stamp these relationships leave on his protagonists' hearts.
		Hawley resurrects ghosts of music past and breathes new, poignant life into their forms.
		Throughout, he manages to dip into old-school doo-wop sounds, grand orchestral ballads and Johnny Cash-inspired country anthems, not at the same time, but almost within their own little worlds.

	Richard Hawley - Late Night Final
		You wouldn't know it from the cover shot of various elderly types sitting outside a grimy-looking cafe, but Richard Hawley's 'Late Night Final' album contains some of the sweetest melodies heard since Scott Walker was in his pomp.
		The unlikely looking Hawley (unkempt hair, cigarette never far away from the mouth) progresses from his recent eponymous mini-album to deliver more songs of romantic longing which have more in common with West coast rock than West Yorkshire.
		Hawley achieves great intimacy using a close-mic style on 'Can You Hear The Rain, Love?', 'Love Of My Life' and 'Cry A Tear For The Man In The Moon'.

	Richard Hawley - Richard Hawley
		The biggest surprise about Richard Hawley is his voice; a rich and reverberating instrument in its own right, it borrows from Jarvis Cocker and Scott Walker in equal measure.
		It is not to overstate things by saying that tracks of the quality of 'Sunlight', 'Naked At Pitsmoor' and 'Time Has Made A Change' sound like undiscovered gems from the 60s which have only just seen the light of day.
		With a proper album already out to follow this perfectly formed mini-album, Hawley could yet become an unlikely hero for the modern generation.
