Search - Jim Greer :: Rover Songs

from the SF BAY GUARDIAN: Beyond Piano Man: Recycled, relacquered music rides through our heads so often, it's easy to forget how to process something other than that, something interesting not because of a narrow goal simply to be different, but because the creativity is original and unpretentious. Upon repeated listens, one realizes that Jim Greer's new cd, Rover Songs, demands attention. The musicianship is harmonious-- a mix of simple guitar lines, piano accompanimetns, and nicely imperfect vocals. THe lyrics are crafted out of truth rather than hype; the result is a thoughtful twist on Jim's everyday wanderings.
