This Buddhaland CD has a sweet folk sound. The opener "Spaces in Between" is lush and airy. "The Moore Hotel" is a somber slow reflective torch piece that brings the late great John Martyn to mind, "Living on the edge of bell tower, the Moore Hotel, Met a girl who was as lost as I was, she treated me well." "Where Were You" is another slow song with a haunting melody. The title track sways to light percussion with Alexander's voice caressing gently. "People wait a lifetime looking for a love that's true; And all the lives that I have lived have led me here to you," Shane sings on the sweet folk tune "Big Red Love." "Shipwrecked" haunts with a spacey acoustic arrangement, "Won't you rescue me? Talking to myself, staring at the sea." "Stargazer" is a strong folk set. While I may wish for a few more toe-tappers to pep it up, Stargazer's gentle melodies and Shane Alexander's lovely vocals are undeniably sweet. Enjoy!

I'm a fan of Shane Alexander's music since hearing it during an episode of Bones. I was planning on buying an mp3 of my favorite song off this album. I noticed that the songs listed as being on Stargazer are none of the songs that are actually on Stargazer. I was going to purchase "Shipwrecked" which is number 9 on the actual track list. I don't know what the screw up is with Amazon's track listing for Stargazer but it certainly doesn't match the track list on Shane Alexander's websites, my space, or cd baby which sells it for $12.97.??????????
