5.0 out of 5 stars A True Storyteller, October 8, 2000

I stumbled upon David Wilcox about six years ago in Keene New Hampshire where he played live at the college up there. What an amazing talent ... especially his ability to engage his audience and tell compelling stories with wonderful musicianship and artful turn of phrase. I recommend this CD of his live work enthusiastically, because, as others have written, it gives a true feel for the unique and enriching experience that comes with seeing him live. Blow 'Em Away is an hilarious song that makes me laugh at my own "road rage", "Johnny's Camaro" shines a bright light on empty materialism, and the Mango Song is worth the price of admission all on its own. Do yourself a favor and pick this gem up.

5.0 out of 5 stars It Takes 2 Parking Spaces..., August 10, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: East Asheville Hardware (Audio CD)

Great! Just great! Now, each time I see someone parked crossways in a parking space I laugh and state "It takes TWO parking spaces for Johnny's Camaro!!!" David's music is not just a reflection of life. Life is David's music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wilcox's Best Disc, November 20, 1998

I consider this the best Wilcox album available. I have all the other albums also but this one captures the one characteristic that all the other's don't, David's sense of humor. Blow 'em Away, When You Love Somebody, and Roadside are nothing short of hilarious. Of course the acoustic rifts and smooth meaningful vocals are still the focus but this album captures the entire realm of Wilcox the entertainer. If you buy one David Wilcox album, make it this one.
