About DUNCAN BROWNE

Duncan Browne (25 March 1947 — 28 May 1993) was a singer-songwriter from England whose début album "Give Me, Take You", a melancholy baroque folk album often compared to Nick Drake's albums, was released on Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate label in 1968. Together with two other multi-instrumentalists, Peter Godwin and Sean Lyons, Browne formed the band Metro whose debut ('Metro') was released in the late '70s on the Transatlantic label. Somewhat difficult to pigeon-hole in terms of style, one possible description could be "underground Paris soft rock" coincidentally harking back to the band's name, the music being strongly evocative of loss, passion and lust in a city of romance such as Paris. "Criminal World" the first single from the debut, was later covered by David Bowie, although the original remains the definitive version. "Flame" and its "Overture" are highlight tracks that would be appreciated across many genres of listeners. Browne released a few more albums, amongst others "The Wild Places" in 1978, which was more pop-orientated than his first effort, in the '70s and '80s. It brought him the hit The Wild Places.
