This is Bill Reveles` third album, the second on the Not Lame site and he`s a solid singer-songwriter that has a really, really nice mixture of favorites here like Bill Lloyd(and even some Foster & Lloyd, as well), Walter Clevenger, The Jawhawks, Brian Jay Cline, early John Mellencamp and Nick Lowe`s solo material from the last 15 years or so. This reminds us, too, of Jamie Hoover and Bill Lloyd`s dual release, Paparazzi, as well. Reveles has a smooth, soothing croon that any songwriter would be jealous of and he puts it to good use here 12 new songs here. Sweet, slow-moving but effective melodies abound as does a driving sense of purpose grounds the entire release. Gorgeous acoustic guitars, rich, melodious singing and rootsy spirit permeate all the tracks here. Beautifully sublime and resonating. Very Highly Recommended!
