Dallas-based Jack O'Neill and Cary Pierce aren't just another guitar-strumming duo who sing high and pretty. The difference is in their songs, which are just knotty enough to justify the lyric sheet. Add an understated production by T-Bone Burnett and guest turns by Benmont Tench and violinist Scarlet Rivera, and this screams quality, taste, and critical approbation. Weather and Iron John are classy starting points. --Jeff Bateman

5.0 out of 5 stars JP's best album hands down!, December 16, 2002

By A Customer

If you're a fan of acoustic based music at all, this is a tremendous record. Jack O'Neill and Cary Pierce were at their songwriting peak (in my opinion) with this, their first major label record (after 3 independent releases). Jack's songs are particularly strong, and his storytelling and lyrical descriptions are quite moving. Pierce's catchy "Get to Know Me Better" and very touching "Jacob" are a nice change of pace. This disc is a must if you've ever heard of JP or bands like them. You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ecclectic, September 5, 1998

By A Customer

When I first heard this cd, I fell in love. Almost every song on here makes me feel something. Jacob and Late shift make me feel like I'm not the only one with problems. The lyrics are the perfect entity. They not only enhance the music, they make it. The perfect rainy day, leaving home, peaceful album.

4.0 out of 5 stars the weather looks good, March 4, 2001

Jackopierce play a wonderful collection of music and stories in this melodic effort of words and song. these concepts have been somewhat abandoned in recent years among musical groups, but "Bringing On The Weaher" gives the song priority over the person, talent, or sound. the CD does lag on the middle of the album, which is understandable because the body of music is not up-beat. however, this does not damage a good group playing and singing good songs.
