Yellow Light, by Bob Lowery (Cayman Records) is an awesome new release! The mix of the songs is so well-balanced that I find myself listening to the CD several times in a row without growing tired of it. (Not like some other CDs, where you suddenly realize you've heard the same thing over and over again, just with a different title)! My favorites, though, are No More Lies and Sad Stories. I have a hard time getting both of these out of my head...Lowery's lyrics touch my heart. Sometimes, especially on the cuts that feature him on harmonica, I find myself reminded of early Bruce Springsteen.

It's been awhile since I have been this caught up by an artist. The whole cd is great, from start to finish. There's an excellent mix of up-beat, lighthearted, and more serious songs. It's the kind of album that you can put on and enjoy until it's over, and then put it on again!

A excellent CD,deserve's more success. The drummer is excellent.

Rock-solid debut album by a guy who can sing great, write meaningful lyrics and blow a mean harmonica. I'd love to hear more from him, but last I heard he wasn't active in music anymore??? That's a shame if it's true, because if "Tell Me" isn't a number one hit song, no song is...

There's a wonderful bittersweetness about guitar and harmonica and songs of love and loss and hope and humor. Before pumped up volume and all the staginess, there were individuals and their music. I'm glad to find a CD like this. Some echoes of Dylan and Springsteen and even Ry Cooder, but Bob has a voice all his own.

Lyrics, rhythm and music are all terrifically blended. Bob has a sort of Dave Matthews quality in a fresh sense. I'm playing this album on Friday evenings and when I have cocktail parties.

I must say, I am impressed with this CD. I am not a music person by any stretch, but I most certainly loved this CD. I just hope he's got another one coming out!
