5.0 out of 5 stars Superlative power pop from New York City, December 1, 2007
Oh, the comparisons with The Left Banke! Fans (or should I say fanatics) of The Left Banke enjoy putting down Stories, the second major band founded by Left Banke mastermind Michael Brown. Well, here's one fellow who loves BOTH The Left Banke and Stories (yes, it is possible.) "Stories" contains the Top 50 single "I'm Coming Home" as well as the sublime "Take Cover" (which should have been issued as the followup, but there was no followup single from the album.) Lead singer Ian Lloyd's vocals are exciting and strong; he is a powerhouse singer who can handle very delicate tunes equally well. The second album, "About Us", is Stories' classic, with great tunes such as the rousing opener "Darling", the wistful "Love Is In Motion" (with its gorgeous harmonies), and the rocking "Top Of The City". But the album's centerpiece is the magnificent "Please Please", which peaks and valleys so often you might think you're on a roller coaster. Brilliant pop.

5.0 out of 5 stars two excellent and over looked albums, October 16, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
After reading the previous review of this cd,I dont know what hes talking about.He said that on the second album Michael Browns presence is not found.With the exception of Brother Louie,which was thrown on after Michael left you can hear him and his keyboards on every track.I totally love both these albums,though I feel the second one is better produced.Listen to tracks like Darling,Love is in motion,Please please,circles,words and What comes after ,and tell me you cant tell how wonderful of a keyboard player he is.As for Ian Lloyds singing I think he does a fantastic job on these songs.On Brother Louie it was obvious to me that Michael wasnt on it since its not his style.I have played these albums to death and was thriiled to see the released of this cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars Overlooked masterpiece, October 29, 2009
By Bubo (Chicago) - See all my reviews
A wide-range of songs and styles with a pleasing original sound. High-range lead male vocal with pleasant clear voice.

This entire album is packed with gems that will give both your ears and a good sound system a workout.

I'll have to wait until the CD arrives to determine things like stage, punch, tonal quality etc. I still listen to the cassette I recorded off of the album 30 years ago which was very clean and beautifully mastered for the day.

Brother Louie is the best know song on the CD, but IMHO by no means the best and is played in a style different than the rest of the tracks.
