CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Nashville is filled with an atmosphere reminiscent of Neil Young?s "Harvest" and Bob Dylan?s "Nashville Skyline." His special affection for that city in Tennessee is played through a more elegant palette. From the pedal steel in "It?s the Nighttime" to the haunting strings in "Streetlights" to the fragile piano intro of "Sad Eyes," Josh has pulled out all the stops on this album. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsStronger than 1972 Phoust | London, England | 09/06/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "I was apprehensive about buying this at first mostly because I was not all that impressed with Josh Rouse' previous album `1972' (2003). After reading reviews that described `Nashville' as the adult pop record of the year so far, I decided to buy it anyway. I must say that `Nashville' is essentially a continuation of where `1972' left off, yet I feel that this is much stronger than the previous record. What remains of the previous record is the same polished production and perfect playing with the same bouncy rhythm. The songs although they don't particularly stand from one another are of a rather higher standard in comparison to `1972'. It was always the honest song writing that I loved about Josh Rouse albums in the first place anyway and not the production but I must admit I prefer the more lo-fi production on `Dressed Up Like Nebraska' and `Under Cold Blue Stars'. Josh does manage to really create that unstoppable rhythm that made previous albums great but which I felt was slightly lacking on `1972'. Lyrically it's same old themes of love, shame and loneliness. I've listened to `Nashville' about ten times now and I find that I'm enjoying this album much more than I expected to. `Nashville' is a blend of `Under Cold Blue Stars' (my personal favourite Josh Rouse album) and `1972'; if you liked both of them then you'll love this. This is a wonderful sugar coated pop record of a high calibre, which gives you the impression you listening to happy music when actually you're not. Excellent. " Hard to stop listening. Richard C. Veith | Pelham, New York United States | 07/10/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "Every time you listen there is something new to notice. Rouse takes every song to a higher level. Its pop like the Beatles were pop. Way more than pop. Anyway, every song has something in it that makes you realize this guy can really write, and surprises you. I can certainly understand the review that said it never left his CD player. Buy it." This is his best... W. Morrison | New England USA | 12/03/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'm a big fan of this guy and this is his finest album - a press play classic. It reminds me of an early America album named Hat Trick, chock full of hooks and harmonies and strings that you may not even notice at first. Too bad an album like Nashville is not big hit - record companies and radio have forgotten what good pop music is. Its amazing to me why albums like this are not accessible - you have to go online or have XM to discover artists like Josh Rouse."
