Rex Pine Orchestra - My Wife Has Gone And Left MeBaby Me

Review by Max Doyle

The Rex Pine Orchestra's album "My Wife Has Gone And Left Me Baby Me" is a soulful and melancholic journey through heartbreak and loss. The album is a mix of blues, jazz, and swing, with Pine's smooth vocals and the orchestra's tight instrumentation creating a vintage sound that harkens back to a bygone era.

The album's standout tracks include "Gone and Left Me," a bluesy ballad that showcases Pine's emotive vocals, and "Baby Me," a swinging tune with a catchy chorus and playful horns. Other highlights include the upbeat "Jumpin' Jive," the soulful "Lonely Nights," and the haunting "Empty Bed Blues."

The album's lyrics explore the pain and confusion of a relationship falling apart, with Pine's raw and honest delivery adding to the emotional depth of the songs. The orchestra's arrangements are lush and full, with each instrument contributing to the overall sound without overpowering the vocals.
