CD Reviews
Great Addition to Sean's Albums Veginomaly | Texas | 03/19/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I bought this when it was available as a digital download on seanwatkins.com early in the year. I enjoyed it very much. Many of the songs are much different from the songs off his previous album, 26 Miles, but after listening to them a few times I fell in love with them.
I'm going to agree with the person who reviewed this album before me in saying "Run Away Girl" is one of my favorites. I also enjoyed all the other songs, though, unlike the former reviewer. I may have a bit of a bias because I absolutely love Sean's music but if I can listen to the entire album over and over again as I do now with "Blinders On," I must give the album all 5 stars.
I like it so much that I'm ordering the CD even though I already have the digital copy. I will restate, though, that I needed to listen to the CD a few times (about three) before I "understood" it, which is my way of saying "adjusted to it in comparison to 26 Miles.""
