Title: The warmth of Jonathan Richman
Review: What can you say about Jonathan Richman ? You love him or you hate him for the same reasons : Because of his voice, because he's so earnest in writing about anything that can happen, because of his honesty which can be so sweet that it hurts in your teeth. I love the guy, but I don't like all his albums. (There's nothing wrong with that, I certainly don't like all the things I've done and I'm me!) If I like it doesn't depend on the songs but on the general sound of the album. And this album sounds great, the songs are great and the spirit is great. The only thing I didn't like was the playlenghth of the album = much too short. I'm not a rich man so I've been in doubt for some time if I would buy it. But the temptation was too great. Listen to my personal favourites Reno and especially Corner store. All the best things that Jonathan Richman and country can give you are available on this album.
Is the review positive or negative?
