Title: Slowly dying of thirst for some good Satch
Review: I am a long time Satch fan, have all the albums, etc. I use to love his music despite its sometimes shallow nature and its regular disregard for instruments other than the guitar. A lot of Joe's music is evocative and inspiring. This album, however, with the exception of 'searching' and 'bamboo' was a waste of money. Joe can't sing or write even passable lyrics. Some of the tunes on this album are so boring and lifeless that they sound like something a band of teenager might produce. In fact, my step-son just brought home a demo of his friends band that I enjoyed more. I forced myself to listen to this Satch album every day for a week looking for the good stuff and haven't listened to it since. It has nothing of the old Satch in it. Sounds a little like the worst of the Extremist. Buy Blue Dream, Crystal Planet or the self title instead.
