5.0 out of 5 stars From the heart, October 3, 2004

I picked up this CD after seeing Jimmy Wayne live in concert recently, just him and a guitar - it was absolutely breathtaking!! I can tell he poured a lot of his heart into this CD as well, the songs are melancholy and touching, especially "Are You Ever Gonna Love Me", "Stay Gone" and "I Love You This Much", and the moving "Paper Angels" hit me hard. But he also cuts loose and has fun on songs like "After You" and "Trespassin'". The last two songs close the album with a bang - "You're the One I'm Talking To" hints about what a plastic society we've become and "The Rabbit" warns "we'll have to answer for the things we've done." What an awesome debut CD - it should be in everyon's collection

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the new young country artists..., December 19, 2004

Jimmy Wayne not only has a beautiful voice and awesome song-writing ability, his music touches the heart. I suspect this is because he's "been there" and in the process has overcome obstacles that would destroy most humans. This is an absolutely perfect debut album and "Paper Angels" and "I Love You This Much" still reduce me to tears. I think Jimmy is going to be unstoppable and I wish him nothing but the best and all the success he deserves. There's so much new talent coming out of Nashville but Jimmy is quite simply the best because he has it all.

4.0 out of 5 stars A compelling, powerful album, October 12, 2004

I was pursuaded to buy this CD when I heard Jimmy Wayne perform live. I was blown away. This album did much the same--it is full of some powerful material, probably brought about by Wayne's tumultuous life.

The album IS a little ballad-heavy, which makes up-tempo numbers like "After You," "Trespassin," "She Runs," "Paper Angels," and "Blue and Brown" that much more enjoyable. And the topics are pretty serious; only "Trespassin," "You Are," and "Just a Dream" are very happy. Still...Wayne is a credible songwriter and a great singer. His self-titled debut may have its flaws, but it's definitely promising. This guy's gonna go far--and someday, we're gonna look back and say the birth of a legend began here.
