(4 out of 5 stars)
"This CD is available NEW at www.retrophonic.com for like $15. It's not rare at all, as some marketplace sellers would have you believe. Hysterical.
Anyway, only have heard the tracks online at Idaho's web site. Sets the same tone as 2001's "Levitate": Piano- and synth-driven melodies hiding ambient accoutrements and haunted by Jeff Martin's harrowing voice. Except for the polka song -- for real. I can't get into that joint, J. Ulitmately, while I miss Martin's novel compositions and approach with the 4-string guitar that marked most of his work in the 1990s, "Lone Gunman" seems like a solid, chill soundtrack for an hour with a book, a long nighttime drive or some time at the computer playing online poker...
Well, scratch the last one. Playing now and losing while I'm listening. Dang."
