"Although Butterfield did not seem to enjoy this CD, I was plesantly surpised at how incredible Jack Savoretti's voice really is. This is a CD I will more than likely wear out within the next few weeks. I can't wait to hear more from this fantastic talent."

Honest Artistry

"Jack Savoretti's music drew so much emotion from me that I could not wait to promote him. I am loaning the two CD's I bought to everyone just to give them the chance to hear him. His lyrics provide an incisive view into the human heart which, with all it's nuances, changes, and evolutions, could never be an exhausted topic. Honest and soulful, his voice and poetry will resonate with the heartstrings of those who study the science of what it means to be human."

Excellent in every respect

"The music is great. You can listen to samples from the first CD to get a good idea of what's on it, and there are no unpleasant surprises when you hear the full tracks, so I won't go on about Jack and his music. It's unfortunate Amazon doesn't have samples from the second CD in this set because it's excellent as well, though different. Four of the nine tracks are acoustic renditions of songs on the first CD, one is a live recording, and there are four other songs. Everything on the second CD is acoustic, like tracks 4 and 7 of the first CD. If you like the simple, acoustic sound, this 2-CD set is a much better option than the regular 1-CD release.



The recording is excellent. Very clean and well balanced. Clean recordings with little or no background noise are really important to me. I often listen to music, as opposed to having music on while I do something else. My listening room is absolutely silent for most of my listening and I like to close my eyes and just listen, so any hiss or background noise is noticeable, especially with material like this, and this recording is great in that respect. You'd think background noise and hiss would be a thing of the past with modern technology, but sadly that's not the case, and it's something I can't really know in advance from online samples, so when I get a CD like this that's well recorded it's always a relief.



I even think the artwork is above average.



In short, I like everything about this set except the price which currently seems way too high. I ended up getting a used copy from Amazon U.K. and even with shipping from England it was less than what it costs here.
