Excellent singer/songwriter acoustically grounded pop that reminds me a lot of early 90's Soul Asylum when they were doing that commercial "Runaway Train" thing. Baskin has solid power pop roots being in Atlanta's great 90s band, The Hippycrickets. "Power-pop aficionados looking for some new stuff from the deep underground, try out Atlanta-based singer-songwriter Baskin's new effort. All the touchstones are in place: grabby tunes, stacked (but not heavy) guitars, shiny vocal harmonies."-Creative Loafing. This is the sound of sitting on the back-porch with friends and breaking out the guitars and having a nice BBQ and good local beer. Fans of Toad The Wet Sprocket, Josh Joplin, early John Mayer, Edwin McKain and Duncan Sheik check this out. There's a wide range of musical styles in his songs, but there's an unmistakable Southern fried taste in this power pop and rock & roll." Steve jangles thru a pleasing compilation of easygoing, electro-acoustic, guitar-driven folk/pop tunes showcasing merrily melodic hooks and sweeepingly sonic production. What's not to like?"-Pennskea. ""I Sometimes Think" is a poppy blend of groove and soul with a nice slice of edge.
Some listeners may hear a Beatles influence in Baskin's song "Better (I Can't Sleep)" especially followed by his hard-hitting, slowed cover of The Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night," but "Better," Baskin laughs, owes more to a riff from the Atlanta Rhythm Section than it does John, Paul George or Ringo. While others may cry "Heresy" for daring record a Beatles cover, Baskin brings a fresh voice to a familiar tune, finding new power in something so subconsciously well known, similar to Beatles producer George Martin's current reworkings of the Fab Four's songs on the CD "Love"."- Valdosta Daily Times. Very Highly Recommended!
