Product Description

Finally Martin Sexton captured in his purest form--Solo. Hear why Billboard calls him, ''The Real Thing, People'' and why John Mayer says ''Martin Sexton is the Best Live Performer I've Ever Seen''. It's easy to forget there's only one man on stage listening to rarities like ''Caught In The Rain'' and covers like ''Purple Rain'', Ray Charles' ''Hard Times'', and a crowd sing-along on ''With A Little Help From My Friends''. Spine-tingling performances from the ''Master of Dynamics'' (Acoustic Guitar Magazine), brilliantly recorded in theatres coast to coast. Two bonus band tracks complete this collection of 72 minutes of raw, sensual emotion from America's soul sensation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this. You won't regret it., April 9, 2009

By	M. Butler (Ashtabula, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Solo (MP3 Download)

Martin Sexton is a real American treasure. He's an excellent songwriter, but as the other reviewers said, where he shines is in his live performances. He has a real talent for using his voice as an instrument, not just a way to express his lyrics. All of this is to say that Martin, live, is not to be missed. This is his second official live album, and this is more stripped-down and raw (since it's just him and a guitar, no backing band). If you'd like a good introduction to him and his work, you can't beat this album. It really is a brilliant collection by a brilliant musician.

5.0 out of 5 stars TOP Live Performer - Do Not Miss Martin Sexton if he's in your Area! No Kidding!, October 30, 2008

By	zjayne "Jane Pierce" (Cleveland, OH USA) - See all my reviews

I have been to many a concert and I tell you this artist is just an amazing live performer and rates at the the TOP of my list. We've followed him from small venues to larger halls and whenever he's within driving distance, we don't miss a performance.

I have never seen someone become one with their guitar and voice like Martin Sexton. I don't hesitate to send anyone to see him... he's moving and makes a difference. This latest CD rocks. He'll be in Kent, Ohio in November... we'll be there!
