Unjustly Overlooked

"Iain Matthews has the voice of a soaring Rafaelite angel. His sweeping tones, capable of strong highs and hushed lows give wonderful life to everything he sings. Seventies AM fans remember his hit version of Joni Mitchell's "Woodstock" with reverence. Luckily, his voice has retained all its smoothness and directness. This disc is slightly rockier than the last few outings (especially DARK RIDE) but the mood is just as winsome. A journeyman performer with unjustly overlooked talent."
Superior in music AND lyrics!

"I stumbled across this CD through the web site here. I had never heard of Iain Matthews, but ordered the CD anyway. It is great! Besides being forward, well produced music, it has lyrics that really make you listen. An excellent choice for any folk music fan!"
