CD ReviewsCountry folk doug_llewelyn | 11/21/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Wow! I bought this album because I had heard a little from Adam's first album and thought it was pretty good. But this album is so much better. Both the playing and songwriting are amazing. Songs range far and wide. I want to list favorites, but there are just too many. As far as general description, this is a fairly simple album, just Adam playing guitar and singing. I don't know how to describe his music except to call it folk music with a bit of a Texas twang. I am filing it right next to Willis Alan Ramsey and Ramblin' Jack Elliott which should say something in and of itself. Lloyd Maines produced the album and does a good job, as always. This album is definitely worth every penny." Down-Home Charm musicologist01 | Washington, DC | 01/11/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "This is a fine CD, on which Adam overcomes the production of the absurdly overrated Lloyd Maines. Maines is smart enough here to stay mostly out of the way, which results in a very personal release. "Amanda's Song," "Rosemary's Song," and "Girl with the Dirty Hair" all shine here, and "Mr. Sno-Cone Man" can't help but draw smiles with each listen. This little-known singer-songwriter deserves a listen, and if he frees himself of Maines, he could really go places." Ol'style wordsmith Bt | Parts unknown | 11/09/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "Adam Carroll plays Texas folk music with witty, intelligent lyrics that bring John Prine to mind. What you get here is an acoustic guitar, some accordian, a steel guitar, and harmanica. No drums or bass, just a guy, a couple of friends and his sense of humour. The reason you don't hear too many artist's like this is because there's not many who can pull off this stuff anymore. You gotta be a natural. Exellent disc."
