Great English Pub Music.......2005-10-25

Both Unity, Home & Reckoning by John Tams are absolutely fabulous. If you want easy listening and the feel of being in an English Pub on Saturday night - these CD's will do it for you. His easy style and unique voice make John Tams a winner in my book. I find his music insightful, as well as, entertaining. The words to the songs on all three CD's have a depth to them. They are poetic and lyrical. The music is super and leaves me wanting to hear more from this incredible man. Hope he has more CD's in the works - I am looking forward to them.

A little disappointed.......2005-02-22

Unlike the other reviewers I was a bit disappointed with the CD. It's pleasant stuff, but having heard Tams sing in the Sharpe's Rifles series on PBS I was expecting more period, or folk music. So some of my disappointment is jsut that it wasn't what I was hoping for. The first two cuts have a country/western sound, and except for the "Spanish Bride" (which merely borrows from "O'er the Hills and Faraway" and "Spanish Lady") none of it's trad, although it might fit under modern folk. The talent is there however, so I am going to check out his other CD.

Best CD in our collection.......2002-02-21

Bought this album for my wife, we are both big fans of the Sharpe series. Not a bad song on the album. It seems to play over and over every day and you can't grow tired of it. It even replaced Joan Baez which I used to have to listen to over and over and over!

A Perfect title for a Perfect album.......2001-01-03

Once again John Tams brings us back to simpler times.No one sings Spainsh Bride like John.All you Sharpe fans, this album is a classic.From Unity to Who will blow the candle out tonight each one a tune as only John can master. "Sing me a tune Dan"

long-awaited release from John Tams!.......2000-09-20

Affecionados of British folk/rock should not miss out on this excellent album. John Tams is joined by colleagues from his No Masters Voice label to create this quiet but long-resonating album that many have been waiting a long time for. Even Linda Thompson adds vocals to one of the tracks. Fans of the Sharpe Epic Television series (shown on many PBS stations) will also find "over the hills and far away/through Flanders, Portugal, and Spain." Its about time!
