5 out of 5 stars Prince who? "Last Great Kiss" for song of 1999.......1999-12-21

Darryl Purpose has jumped from any label in the folk world and moved into the realm of "legend". He takes the acoustic guitar places that it didn't even know it could go. Even better is the lyrical material. "Last Great Kiss of the 20th Century" should be in every CD Player when that ball drops on NY. If "Mr. Schwinn" doesnt make you cry every time you hear it then you're not human. If you can't see him live then this is the next best thing! Don't miss these 11 songs from an absolutely fantastic storyteller.

5 out of 5 stars Best Darryl Purpose yet!.......1999-10-24

I found out about Darryl Purpose on MP3.com, and I was genuinely surprised: here is a great artist, so why doesn't everyone know about him? I first found him because I was looking for singers and songwriters along the lines of James Taylor. And, in fact, there's an obvious similarity in some parts of "Right Side of Zero". But, Darryl Purpose has a sound, and a set of themes, all his own. And, after his third album (that I know of) he hasn't gotten stale or repetitious -- in fact he's better than ever.

5 out of 5 stars Buy This CD!.......1999-09-14

Darryl Purpose just gets better and better. Child Of Hearts is my favorite song, after listening non-stop for weeks. If you like folk-rock, Darryl Purpose is the best artist you haven't heard yet.

5 out of 5 stars Traveler's code touches my heart.......1999-09-13

I don't know where to start, I have so many things to say, that my mind is drawing a blank. My favorites are Child of Hearts, the updated Last Great Kiss, Travelers' Code, and True as the River, although I still don't understand that last one fully. Darryl's songs make me think and help me feel human. I eagerly await his next concert in our area!

5 out of 5 stars This album is full of clever lyrics and great melodies........1999-09-13

Traveler's Code is a wonderful follow up to Darrly Purpose's previous CD, "Less than Zero." Darrly's strong and expressive singing voice provides the perfect complement to his excellent guitar-playing and wonderfully crafted original songs. Offerings range from movingly sentimental, in "Ring on my Hand" to rocking and humorous, in "Last Great Kiss." The songs are intelligent, melodious and original - it's a great CD!!
