I don't think I've ever heard a rec by this guy...this reminds me of Leonard Cohen as much as anything I think I've heard. Is that the sort of thing he's known for? This is a very nice, very pretty, very sedate record which'll be out in a couple of weeks. Actually there's a sticker here that says something about 'nine songs for insomniacs,' and 'acoustic chill-out music for the soul...' Yep, this could sure put a person to sleep. But that's not a harsh criticism. Although I've been known to put Minor Threat on while going to sleep, this is definitely more the type of thing you want...when you're getting sleepy...zzz...
