Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: The best Comment: Loudon is the best. I saw him in York, England a few months back, and he was the best i have ever seen. This man knows his craft! This album is a lovely introduction to the varied sounds of Loudon Wainwright. Personal favorites are 'IDTTYWLM', utterly superb. 'Martha' is sweet, 'One Man Guy' typically bitter enough to be a Loudon great song. Really all these songs on this album are amazing. I can't convey just how good Loudon is. I only hope you buy this album and more to find out! Customer Rating: Summary: Best vfm CD ever! Comment: This is a superb CD. At first I was a bit disappointed. Then one track grew on me, then another and another. Now, there's only about three or four I'm not too keen on. My favourite tracks are Cardboard Boxes and Synchronicity. He has a unique style. I cannot remember hearing any other singer who sings such autobiographical songs. He has a great flair for words and a good voice too. Customer Rating: Summary: Some of the best tracks from some of his best albums Comment: Not much more to say, except that having bought this you should then go out and find the rest of his albums. Deceptively simple, yet at times searingly honest, his work is free of overblown imagery, and doesn't make you feel that you are too old to be listening to it. Smart songs, written with emotional depth, and a wry sense of humour. Highly recommended. Customer Rating: Summary: Love this album Comment: This album is like an old friend - it's good for a laugh and a shoulder to cry on. Loudon shares the funny side of his talent "Acid Song", and the wistful side, "Your Mother and I". He gets a little blusy and funky on "I'm All Right", but overall it's just, one man, one guitar and a bunch of great songs. More Reviews
