Reviews
“The title track was written after a trip from New York via Nashville to Papa's old house on the Florida Keys - and this solo album finds him maturing as a piano-based songwriter with a smoky, soulful voice and ear for an uplifting pop melody.Theres plenty of emotional muscle in the music and tunes like the stirring "Expectation". Someone really should pitch that one to Joe Cocker for his next album.” Noel Mengel - The Courier Mail
"Check out the outro to Emily for a start- and that's the nature of the singing piano player I suppose - the Ben Folds and The Joe Jacksons are few and far between - but there's a healthy leavening of the spirit of Leon Russell, Bruce Springsteen and Van Morrison in there too, which makes this album a truly sweet surprise" Michael Smith Drum Media - Sydney
