4 out of 5 stars A music fan is right. Charles W. Miller does not know...........2005-03-26

The Backstreet Boys? Please! Don't even start. This music is not POP. It's more like Alt. Country/Americana or Bluegrass. Not my type of music but nonetheless it's good in it's own right

5 out of 5 stars A album that's a genius work of art that requires time.......2004-01-15

I just want to write something here as the editorial review on this site gives completely the wrong impression. It sounds to me like that reviewer didn't give the album enough chance, and that he judged it too hastily and perhaps snappily.

One-Eyed Jesus is certainly not for everybody, but I consider it to be a bona fide masterpiece that requires an awful lot of time and effort to fully appreciate. The sound of the album is a very layered one, and it's only with a great many repeated plays that it truly reveals itself; at that point the music and poetic lyrics really do start to hook you. There's a mysticism about the whole thing somehow, and once you begin to understand the album's transcendent nature (particularly evident towards the end of the album) it repeatedly produces a smile, and makes the heart leap!

5 out of 5 stars Charles W. Miller doesnt know what hes talking about.........2004-01-06

Jim Whites debut album is ground breaking music...Starting with a 14 page story in the attached booklet about how he (jim white) shouted "wrong eyed Jesus" to the complete mixture of bluesey folk music with a twisted spiritual edge makes one drool over each tasty morsel that jim serves to the ears..the lyrics are catchy and you find yourself humming and singing the strange lyrics to the amazement of gaping onlooker..."I whisper beautiful secrets down the drain pipes at night" and other such fun, twisted, music..
In a age when all music is starting to sound the same. Jim white breaks new ground and this CD is a must have along with his second album

5 out of 5 stars great cd!!!!!.......2003-11-07

this is an excellent cd - music with a brain and a sense of humour. I recommend it to anyone who's sick of the same old sugary-sweet treacle the big labels are selling and who wants some genuine American weirdness. Beautiful, haunting music - can't wait to see him live!
