Reviewed 2001-09-02

Solo album from the lead singer of Karate. His subdued electric guitar and weary voice makes for kinda a folky, jazzy, dim-the-lights-and-sip-tea-by-the-hearth album. Very intimate, casual sounding. -nari

1. nostalgia and colorful jazz scales
2. very folk quality
3. sad little chorus
4. very blue chords
5. brighter, perkier; dazzling jazz scales
6. finger-snapping syncopation
7. extended solo; wah-wah funkiness
8. slow, with chords that stretch out over time
9. shimmery arpeggios
10. very short; almost a rambling narrative
11. brighter, perkier, snappier
12. another heart squeezing solo
13. folky speak-to-the-audience quality
