Though this recording is made up of tunes from the time of his military service during the second world war, it is no mere nostalgic exercise, but rather a solo recital of subtle pleasure, humour and quiet profundity.
Dargel's songs make the case that real intimacy can be found in our day-to-day exchanges rather than the mundane profundity of more grandiose pop songs, and "Your Voice Is in My Head" is no exception.
There was only one other woman who in 1928 wrote a similar text but she was a princess and Dr Seeger says it does not achieve the same level of profundity as this work.
