This one sticks with you

(5 out of 5 stars)

"These smooth, sweet songs will stick with you long after you turn off the CD player. From the funky Soul Mine, to the subtly reggae Window to Your Soul, it's one great performance after another. The production's excellent, and here is your first clue that Eliot Lewis is a blue-eyed soul to be reckoned with - listen up, and you won't be thinking about Hamish Stuart - Lewis has the goods to deliver. Pete Abbott and Roger Ball sound great, and Alan Gorrie and Onnie "Pure Evil" McIntyre are the vital soul of this band. (Ball and Abbott are no longer with the band, but they are still at it, and even better than ever. Fred Vigdor and the amazing Adam "Bomb" Deitch on drums have worked into the lineup and it's a must-see show!) If you love great Alan Gorrie tunes (and you'll also then love the great Eliot Lewis tunes here), grab this disc. Then turn the lights down a bit, press play and draw that someone special near, because this disc is inspiring on SEVERAL levels, if you catch my meaning..."
