CD Reviews

Doesn't leave the cd player...
Sara Greco | Tucson, AZ USA | 12/14/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I first heard JK last summer at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival and was so blown away that I bought this cd on the spot. These traditional songs- sometimes bittersweet, sometimes joyful- take on new life in the hands of such a talented man. Buy this cd (and any of his other cds); they will become favorties."
Finally a new JK CD

"I've already "worn out" the CD ... this is a long time coming but for those core JK fans, its heart warming."
A worthy successor to Lightfoot.
Robert Neumann | Tavares, FL USA | 01/18/2008

"What is it about Canadian songwriters? They must have something in the water up there that spawns great music and lyrics. Here's another one to join the ranks of Gordon Lightfoot, Joanie Mitchell, Ian Tyson, Leonard Cohen, David Francey, et al. James not only composes great stuff but sing them very well in a rich baritone voice. His guitar playing is simple and lends great support to his music. Gotta get it!"
