By	Sam Barnes (Woodbridge, VA United States) - See all my reviews

I first heard Jamie Walters voice when he was a regular on 90210.I never really thought abour buying the CD and just kinda forgot about it over the years.About 2 weeks ago I was in a used CD store and found this CD there.I decided to go ahead and buy it.I listened to it that night and highly enjoyed.The songs were all wonderfully sung.The lyrics are so original.This is just an excelent CD.One that any fan of guitarish pop music should buy. A must have!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The greatest album you've never heard., July 17, 1999

By A Customer

Jamie Walters' second solo album is greater than his debut, even though his "self titled" effort sold a lot more copies than "Ride".The main reason for this was the fact that his first album got a much bigger promotional boost, since it's songs were repeatidly played on 90210, the single "Hold On" got heavy radio airpaly (much more airplay than the "Ride" single "I'd do anything for you") and also Jamie's tour in 95 was much bigger than the one he did in 97. Not to mention the fact that Atlantic Records basicly did nothing to promote Ride. I'm one of Jamie's biggest fan if not his biggest, proof of that is my Jamie Walters website at so it really disappionts me when Jamie does't get the credit he deserves. In "Ride" you see Jamie's growth as a singer/songwriter proof of that is the fact he did much of the writing in this album as opposed to his first record in wich he did very little writing. Ride has it all, up beat straight foward Rock N' Roll on fly on sweet angel, country on Matthew Sweet's Winona, and incredibly romantic lyrics on I'd do anything for you; but the best song on the album has to be The Other Side, that has a great intro. This album defantly worth buying and listening to. We've probably not seen the best of Jamie yet though, as he is now in a band called elco. wich sounds' has been described as Radiohead meets Matthew Sweet and as unlike anything heard before. It's hevier than the stuff Jamie has done as a solo artist.

By	Anita Martino (NYC) - See all my reviews

This is one great CD! Every song is terrific and is extremely listenable. Jaime does not get the credit he deserves. Take a chance and buy this CD. I promise, you will not be sorry.
