CD Baby Reviews
Jim,
Your CD is exquisite. I enjoyed it so well! I was driving while I listened to almost the whole thing, when I "came to" I didn't even know where I was. I had driven 3 miles the wrong way down RT 31.
It is so well done....... BRAVO!

Jim - I just finished my first listen-thru. This is super. You and Mark are 2 talented guys - perfect combination of imagination in storytelling-songwriting and in technical achievement. You know I don't always love singer-songwriters, but your talents remind me of John Stewart, with the ability to describe and tell the story and get that emotional whomp in there. This is just a wonderful CD. Congratulations to you and Mark.

This album is a true tapestry of story and song with poignant lyrics that paint pictures and tell tales of days gone by. My faves are Hey Jace Bridges (like a really good Prine song), Old Train Coming, Fifteen Roads & Summer Days Back Home. Jim Clare is indeed a folk treasure!! And really positive reviews by prominent folk icons like Taylor Pie & Buffy Ford Stewart add icing to a great cake!!

I find this an altogether wonderful musical reflection on Americana past and present. When I first listened to the CD I found myself pushing the "repeat" button on several of the tracks, something I don't usually do. This album crept into the nooks and crannies in the attic between my ears and it brushed away cobwebs I might have expected to find in an Old Empty Hall.

Once again Jim Clare has written a real gem of a song. Jim has the ability to paint a clear picture in your minds eye. Jim is one of the finest story tellers around this big old country of ours that I know of. "Saddle on the Wall" is another fine example of his story telling craftsmanship. If you listen closely to him weave his fine tales, I truly believe that you will love his stories as I do.
