Released: 1973
Marjory Razorblade
by Kevin Coyne
The 1202nd greatest album of all time
Marjory Razorblade, released in 1973, pairs Kevin Coyne's blunt, conversational vocals and character-driven songwriting with arrangements that move between spare folk-rock and rougher rock band textures. The record emphasizes intimate, often unsettling narratives delivered with an idiosyncratic, emotive voice, balancing quieter acoustic moments and more forceful electric tracks to create a moody, eclectic early solo statement in Coyne's catalog.
