5.0 out of 5 stars A songwriter is born!, April 5, 2001

By A Customer

At first I wasn't sure whether I'd like this album, but after a couple of listens it's really starting to grow on me. The guy writes easy, delicate melodies, and the accompaniment is full of interesting harmonies without being overbearing. Not your average, excessively produced, junky rock tunes built on boring chord changes. I particularly enjoy the song "I Feel You Fade." Anyone who likes Elliott Smith or Simon and Garfunkle or Nick Drake will probably be happy with this album. It's sweet and gentle, and although the lyrics can get a bit mushy at times, there's a lot to admire in the composition of it all. Keep the songs coming, Andrew Baum!

I've only known Andrew Baum since 1983, and I've only seen him play about 40 or 50 times. So I may not be an expert about him or his music, but I will say I have become intimate with his first album, Release. Some albums are best played loud. . .Baum's album is best played often. It strikes me as a cross of Elton and Paul, with some of that very cool loose Desparado vibe, reprises, ballads, up-tempo melodies and thoughtful meditations. I find it to be a timeless tale of love lost and a confidence restored. Something that everyone can relate to. I've bought a few copies as gifts for friends. . .you should too!
