5.0 out of 5 stars Western Beat is a Fine Gem, December 14, 1999

Kevin Welch has won my heart! His music is very deeply satisfying. Every track has the listener wanting more. Very spiritualized messages come through these songs...about love, life, longing, and living in the moment. My favorites are Early Summer Rain, The Other Side, I Look for You and Same Old Rain. His songs demonstrate his strength as a unique and talented musician/lyricist. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!

5.0 out of 5 stars Country at its best, June 20, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Western Beat (Audio CD)

In Europe there's an advertisment in cinemas for the danish beer "Tuborg". The music within the spot is played by Kevin Welch - the song is know under the title "Something 'Bout You". I myself was so impressed by this song that I really wanted to get the CD "Western Beat" that "Tuborg" told me. But nowhere in Europe - not in Germany, not in the UK, not in France - there was the possibility to get this old album. So I tried to order it on Amazon.com. And now it's mine - not only the wonderful "Something 'Bout You" (this great, melodious and romantic country-song), but also a whole collection of interesting, creative and nice-to-hear country-songs of Kevin Welch. I must thank Amazon.com for this album. It was a real adventure to get it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A quality of soul, January 9, 2001

is what I said of Kevin's Life Down Here on Earth CD, but it applies to all his music. The richness of his voice, the wisdom of his lyrics, and the grace and power of his music are simply awesome. He will move you, touch you, and make you feel all the poignancy and beauty and pain of life down here on earth, with an Oklahoma accent and a soul that soars free. Try him, try him, try him. You'll thank me.
