Customer Reviews
Love this album
This album is like an old friend - it's good for a laugh and a shoulder to cry on. Loudon shares the funny side of his talent "Acid Song", and the wistful side, "Your Mother and I". He gets a little blusy and funky on "I'm All Right", but overall it's just, one man, one guitar and a bunch of great songs.
Some of the best tracks from some of his best albums
Not much more to say, except that having bought this you should then go out and find the rest of his albums. Deceptively simple, yet at times searingly honest, his work is free of overblown imagery, and doesn't make you feel that you are too old to be listening to it. Smart songs, written with emotional depth, and a wry sense of humour. Highly recommended.
Best vfm CD ever!
This is a superb CD. At first I was a bit disappointed. Then one track grew on me, then another and another. Now, there's only about three or four I'm not too keen on. My favourite tracks are Cardboard Boxes and Synchronicity. He has a unique style. I cannot remember hearing any other singer who sings such autobiographical songs. He has a great flair for words and a good voice too.
