Reviews, etc.

FOUR-STAR REVIEW FROM THE UK:

The December 2009 issue of Maverick magazine ("the voice of country, folk, bluegrass and roots music," published in England), contains this very positive review of my CD on page 79.

A "MOODY" RESPONSE:

"I like your refrain hook 'when only one of the two is in love.' Really nice melody! Good storytelling with well-crafted lyrics. Very creative and memorable composition!" [regarding my song "One of the Two"] -- Mike Pinder, formerly of the Moody Blues

FROM THE AIRWAVES:

"His lyrics are direct and never obvious. A real gem among today's songwriters." -- Bill Berry, WWOZ-FM New Orleans

A FAN'S RAVE REVIEW OF MY NEW CD!

"I listened to it three times in a row! It is evident to me that your poet's heart is meeting it's true potential. All four of these songs touched me on a very different level, "One of the Two", especially, but I thought that they were all very cleverly crafted lyrically, enhanced by the music and were given an open honesty by your voice talents." -- S.C., Saugus, CA

ANOTHER:

Wowee wow wow! I ADORE your album, Steve! I listened all the way to Wilmington (6 hours) today. I have only heard The Shady Trees [folk trio I was in, released one CD in '99 -- SNW] for so many years- and while I love that album, it's great to have a new version of you in my car with me." -- S.K.W., Asheville, NC

AND ANOTHER:

"I listened to it over and over and over. Pure delight." -- C.A., N. Hollywood, CA

AND ANOTHER:

"Got your new CD. LOVED IT!" -- A.E., N. Hollywood, CA

"I listened to it yesterday and I LOVED IT !!!!!!!" -- V.G., Tujunga, CA

"I've listened to your CD about 4 times now. That is not nothing, as I have stacks of CD's...that are in piles, still in the plastic. REALLY impressed with your simple, but perfect production Steve. All four songs do what great songs are supposed to do. They take me into the story, effortlessly. No seams or cracks. I go there without trying to. It's my new favorite CD." -- D.L., Tujunga, CA
