4.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended disc, July 24, 2003

Pete Droge has finally produced a great album with "Skywatching". While I like his previous albums (though I still don't have "Spacey & Shakin"), none of them are great the whole way through. Droge seems to have learned a bit from working with Stone Gossard on "Bayleaf," as there are definite similarities in some of the vocal lines and delivery here to Stone's solo work ("Hard to Tell You," & "Bring Up the Failure" especially). Overall, the album still isn't a rocker like his album with the Sinners nor "Beautiful Girl," but is a really nice, mellow disc that's not your straight-forward singer/songwriter material. By the way, "Small Time Blues" is just a tremendous song. Anyway, highly recommended to fans of his previous work, Stone Gossard's solo work, or anyone looking for a cool, mellow album. Definitely more staying power and more unique than his album with the Thorns.

A very good album from Droge. Good melodies and songwriting with a sound and voice reminding me a lot of Tom Petty but with Droge's own touch to it. Listening to this you are gonna want to bring the album to the car and cruice around in the sunset. Feelgood music for sunny days.

I became a Pete fan recently, when I heard a couple of his songs on the Neil Young Bridge School collection CD. Picked up Necktie Second and Find a Door and loved them both.

This CD is just as solid. Great songwriting, nice rhythms. I'm really surprised Pete has gotten so little radio airplay. Give him a listen.

Do Be True and Train Love to Stay, particularly stand out.
