5.0 out of 5 stars Painted Desert Serenade, November 1, 2000

By	Donald G. Henderson (New Castle, PA USA) - See all my reviews

Have listened to this CD non-stop since purchasing it after hearing "Jessie" for the first time on the radio. Not one bad song on this CD. "Beautiful in My Eyes", "Beau's Radio Love Line" and "Picture Postcards from LA" rank as my favorite. When he released "Delilah Blue", purchased immediately and felt there was NO comparison to PDS. Recently gave it another listen, and after getting used to a different style, listen to as much as PDS.

Thanks to the postings here about his website, I ordered both CD's offered there and those who can't get enough of PDS, these two releases are songs in the style of the ones on PDS. He writes on his site that he is working on his 3rd Studio album and should be out the first part of next year. Can't Wait!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wish he released more beautiful albums like this one..., May 18, 2000

By	Nathan Albright (Tampa, FL) - See all my reviews

This is a fine album...I just bought it recently, and there's not a bad song in it. Joshua Kaddison melds soft, intricate melodies full of wonderful piano riffs and soft string instrument notes and blends them with lyrics that tell the stories of romantic dreams and lovesick souls. As one of those lovesick souls, I appreciate his sensitive touch a lot. He begins and ends the album with two songs about a girl named Jessie, "Jessie" and "Georgia Rain." "Beautiful In My Eyes" is a wonderful song, fit for any blessed couple. As a resident of LA from the south, I appreciate "Picture Postcards From L.A." and I love "Painted Desert Serenade" and "Beau's All Night Radio Love Line." If you're into romantic adult contemporary music, you can't go wrong with this album...It makes an excellent gift to, say, a girlfriend or someone you want to be your significant other...fine work...

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Artist of the 20th century!, December 8, 1999

By	jon - See all my reviews

This album is more than music, more than songs, you get so many different pictures from every line of every song on this album. This is one album that you never get tired of hearing and in a time where music is 2 or 3 different lyrics and synthized sounds it is so wonderful to be able to experience someone who has true talent and the ability to make you reflect why enjoying his musical gifts. I have this album, Deliah Blue and the 2 ("Saturday Night in Storyville" and "Troubadour In A TimeQuake").from his personal WEB site. He is truly one of the all time greatest talents to ever hit the music industry.
