About this album
Waves is a smart, melodic pop-rock album that shows Mike Batt balancing acoustic warmth, art-rock imagination and sharp songwriting. Issued in 1980, it reflects Batt’s gift for theatrical arrangement and melodic detail, with the title track and pieces such as The Winds Of Change and Portishead Radio pointing to a record that is playful without losing emotional focus. Best known as a songwriter, arranger and producer, Batt brings a polished, characterful style to the album, making it one of his most distinctive solo statements and a fine example of late-1970s British crossover pop with a more adventurous edge.
