CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Though guitarist Duane Jarvis established his alterna-twang credentials as sideman for the likes of Lucinda Williams and Rosie Flores, his own brand of country echoes the influence of British Invasion rock. The album-opening title track recalls the reedy tunefulness of the Kinks' Ray Davies, while "Love Sometimes" (with harmonies from cowriter Joy Lynn White) and other cuts find Jarvis riffing like the Rolling Stones' Keith Richards. Additionally highlighting the 13-cut collection are two songs written with Williams (including "Still I Long for Your Kiss," which she previously recorded for Car Wheels on a Gravel Road), the Tex-Mex cantina balladry of "Forgive the Fool," and the soulful underpinnings of "Intoxicate Me." Throughout, Jarvis emphasizes the strength of his songcraft rather than his instrumental chops. --Don McLeese Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsGreat Americana Singer/Songwriter BigAl | Idaho | 09/18/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Recording for this CD was financed by the artist and originally released in Europe only on Blue Buffalo Records. Critical acclaim in Europe, including a 4 star rating in the German edition of Rolling Stone prompted the release of this CD by Missouri based Slewfoot Records.One of the premier guitarists in Nashville, Duane has previously been known more for who he has played with (Lucinda Williams, Divinyls, John Prine, Greg Trooper, Dwight Yoakum) than for his song writing. This release establishes that he's also a world class songwriter. All songs are written or co-written by Jarvis. Co-writers include Lucinda Williams, Kevin Bowe (Shannon Curfman, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepard), Joy Lynn White, and Gwil Owen (Toni Price).The highlight of the album might be Duane's version of `Still I Long for Your Kiss'. Originally on co-writer Lucinda William's Grammy winning album `Car Wheels on a Gravel Road', this song retains the bittersweet quality of the original, yet seems to hold out more hope for the future.`Sad Blue Year' provides a different take on the year 1999. "1999 was supposed to be a celebration/ That's what The Artist said/ I never got the invitation"Reminiscent of Bonnie Raitt's more rock oriented songs, "Love Sometimes" is an upbeat song about the wide range of feelings that love can cause.Other songs include the Tex-Mex "Forgive the Fool" and the country twang of "Broke Not Busted". This CD should be a must have for any fan of alt-country or Americana music." Little of this, little of that BigAl | 09/21/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Duane Jarvis' new album has something for everyone, from Muscle Shoals soul and horns to country kickers, well crafted songs and excellent playing. It's like a smorgasbord of all types of great American music."
