5.0 out of 5 stars One word - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, September 11, 2000

This review is from: One Left Shoe (Audio CD)

I beg to differ with the amazon.com reviewer. I don't think there's a dud on this album. While some of the lyrics can be corny (luck/buck/stuck etc), the album is a powerful, sweet album full of raw emotion. Highlights include "forbidden fruit", a song about a fictional encounter with a prostitute ("in my mind my mother said "you'd better not!"/then again she always told me that i wouldn't like the taste of beer"), "everything about you", a love song he wrote for a friend of his who died a few days after he played it to her, and "good morning (waking up with you)", a song which i think easily rivals You were meant for me. The easygoing accoustic guitar, sweet sentiments, great vocal delivery all point to the track that could have been. ie, if this track had been properly promoted, this could have been the equivelant of what "who will save your soul" was for Jewel. Anyway, i look forward to his next album with intense pleasure, as I have listened to this so much, constantly, that it has created a lot of joy for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my Favorite CDs in the bunch!, July 15, 1999

Steve Poltz's cute style, voice and sense of humor keeps me hooked. This debut album is great. You can listen to it when you want to be lulled to sleep or while lounging, there are even some pick-me-up songs that are just enough to keep you going. All in all, he's a great performer and I can't wait for the next album.

P.S. He's even better in concert!
