Dec 21, 2020This is probably one of LaMontagne's best albums so far. There are hints of Simon & Garfunkel-ish sound and of course, some signature LaMontagne croons.

Jul 24, 2020Misty Morning Rain is my favorite Ray Lamontagne song since Ojai. It's as moving as Astral Weeks, except he sings better than Van Morrison. The up-tempo first half doesn't become overly harsh, and in the lush and gorgeous second half, there are few distracting psychedelic touches to distract from the beauty.

Jul 4, 20202020 is a tough year, and this album is positive, reflective and nostalgic. Lush, beautiful and easy to listen to, excellent songwriting.

Jun 30, 2020The album has all of the Ray LaMontagne trademarks, consisting mostly of love ballads shared via gently strummed minor chords, soft crooning vocals, and a soft, tender atmosphere. But what the album lacks in surprises it makes up for in authenticity, Monovision consisting of the introspective musings of a folk singer baring his soul.

Jun 26, 2020The individual tunes hold their own, but Monovision is a record where the whole means more than the individual numbers, since LaMontagne strikes a very specific mood -- one that's reassuring, even soothing -- and then manages to sustain it until the end.

MojoJun 26, 2020If you enjoy a record that can gently coax a cathartic tear or two, Monovision fits the bill. [Aug 2020, p.88]
