General comments:

An interesting array of hooks employed in his playing; it works! Good, creative string accompaniment, nice guitar work with a pleasant rock beat infusing the otherwise folky tone of the recording. Good finding a banjo used creatively again.
     His voice possesses a nice smokey tone to it. A softness that works well with the material. (Anachro1@pacbell.net)
