CARRIED AWAY kinks off this CD with an uptempo song with a superb melody and the drum beat this unstoppable. I must admit, I feel a bit of Dylan in this song. So sweet.
NASHVILLE DREAM is pure greatness as his guitar playing is right on the money. The melody on this song is super strong and will stay in your head for quite some time. I love it. A true gem! PLAY ME LIKE YOUR GUITAR is great as the steel guitar comes into the song which gives the song a bit of a country favor.
The Flying Burrito Brothers would be proud to hear this song. ONE HORSE TOWN is so, so sweet as the harmonies are a real treat. You can actually 'feel this song'. The lyrics once again are as strong as ever.
DON'T ASK has a super sweet guitar riff as his vocals are as strong as ever. The steel guitar sneaks into the song which is supercool. I must admit, his music reminds me a lot of Gram Parsons and that says a lot.
WHERE DID THE MAGIC GO brings this great CD to an end as the guitar pickin' is pure greatness. This song will., definitely grow on you once you get a taste of it. This one reminds me a bit of John Hartford.
