Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |
|
 Soulful, smooth and a nice first release
Submitted on: 2009-10-02 |

Thirty-two year old Amos Lee's self-titled debut is impressive - soulful, souring vocals, methodical rhythms, all sustaining songs that plant themselves firmly in Folk/Mellow Rock territory, all seasoned with R&B. The production is distinctly low-key and bare bones. GENRES: Contemporary Folk.
BUY IF YOU LIKE: Martin Sexton, Tracy Chapman, Ray LaMontagne.
MUST HEAR TRACKS: "Black River," "Lies of a Lonely Friend," "All My Friends." |

 One of the best albums I'll ever own

| I love Amos Lee. I hate to make comparisons, but I tend to tell people that if you like Norah Jones' style then you will like Amos Lee. Although he tends to take more chances with his vocal range than Jones (which I like), the soothing soulfulness is a commonality. His voice is soulful, passionate, soothing, and original. I enjoy hearing his voice throughout all his albums, but this one is truly my favorite because it captures the depth and vulnerability of his lyrics and sound. My favorite song on this album is "Colors," followed by "Seen It All Before." If you are looking for a tremendously talented voice, unique soulful/jazz/acoustic style, and thoughtful lyrics, this is the perfect album for you. Now, if I could only get Mr. Lee to personally sing me to sleep every night!! |

Nice to find a very strong diverse Debut release that has such broad appeal

I lost most of my music recently, and wanted to add some new blood into my aging collection of music.
In the past some of my favorite artists included John Lennon, Jackson Browne, and James Taylor to name a few, so as I was browsing Adult Alternative, I came across Amos Lee and thought I would down load the MP3 collection just to get more of an idea of who he was being somewhat impressed by the samples here. I can't tell you how pleased I was when I burned a copy of this album. The samples just do not due justice to the moving sound of this young artist. I burned a copy for my 30 year old daughter and she loves him too, so I believe he has broad appeal and honestly this album doesn't have a looser on it. I have a couple of favorites, that are pure and soulful songs that compete with well with any of my favorite singer song writers. Honestly get this I can't see anyone turning their nose up at this outstanding artist.
One last note, with the lights down low this album is magic. |

| I was in Starbucks one morning and heard a song overhead that was so beautiful that I had to go back to the counter and ask what it was. Amos Lee - 'Arms of a Woman'. Had never heard of him. I went out and bought the CD. I love his voice. I don't like all of the songs, but most of them are wonderful. And of course, my favorite is 'Arms of a Woman'! |
