Prewitt is generous with his melodies and hooks, providing an abundance of beautiful musical phrases. Timeless sound but does lack edge and variation, so some will not like it on those grounds.… Collapse

Is being and zebob h, your criterion for judging music includes offensiveness? Would a little gang violence or misogyny improve your opinion? Is being and tasteful and hip now a supposed to be a detraction? Anyway, this is a great cd. My only complaints are the usage of cliched country slide guitar and generally bland arrangements on the later half of the album. If it could have lived up to the promise of the first track I would have given it a ten. If you've never heard of Prewitt then you are better off with his earlier cds: Three, or White Sky.… Expand

   Each of the songs on the album have a rambling quality that prevents them from forming cohesive wholes. These are not pop songs traditionally Each of the songs on the album have a rambling quality that prevents them from forming cohesive wholes. These are not pop songs traditionally crafted and melodically there is little that unites each composition. I find myself drifting off listening to this, not from relaxation but boredom. The songs don't strike me as particularly insightful nor beautiful. the pottery barn comment seems apt, but even here the songs lack the melodic robustness of norah jones style crooning.… Expand
