CD Reviews

A genius

"I saw Entrance play with Devendra Banhart two years ago when they both release their first records. They did a big tour together. Some thought they were creating the same vibe. Entrance was Dylan to Devendra's Donovan. Entrance was Marc Bolan to Devendra's David Bowie. They were both based in the folk tradition. Devendra was more exotic and more accessible for some reason. Entrance was mysterious and equally inaccessible, for some reason or other. Devendra has gone on to great success, while Entrance has baffled people for some reason. I have seen Entrance play to colitions of the unwilling. On record, he has always been worthwhile (I hate that word). Wandering Stranger is his most successful album. For this album he has drawn inspiration from Townes Van Zandt and Blind Willie McTell. It is an excellent recording. Entrance should be given careful consideration. He is a personal favorite.

Excellent stuff

"Yes it takes quite a while to get your head round this. Guy Blakeslee and his electric guitar wailing country-folk blues. This guy has a wonderfully powerful voice. The songs really do bury themselves in your head and I find myself singing them everywhere. They do linger. In a good way. "Make Me a Pallet on Your Floor" is the first song I heard (on WFMU) and I predicted that this was gonna be the only good song on the album. I was utterly wrong, they all have the great quality of "Make Me a Pallet..". "Honey in the Rock" is also worth a mention. Love it!"

Stick around...

"Entrance will hopefully stick around to prove his haunting tenor falsetto and unique competence on guitar has the staying power it deserves. He won't be mistaken for a black musician, but I believe he's nodding to the influence of Robert Johnson much more credibly than Clapton's recent effort."
