Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Peaceful, Plaintive & Provocative Piano.......2001-01-15

I bought this CD to hear the cover of Joni Mitchell's "Willie". If you're a fan of Joni's piano stylings from Blue & Ladies of the Canyon, this will appeal to you. Richard's piano is mournful & beautiful, his voice is soothing and melancholy, and his skill as a composer is very strong. He is more concerned with creating musical "textures" than writing "pop" songs. When you play this CD, you won't leave with tunes in your head, but you will want to hear it again & again!

5 out of 5 stars Better than Pop.......2001-01-10

It's not very pop--but the tune I downloaded, Blue Window, is just beautiful. There's something in your harmony that is like a skilled painter using watercolors, taking advantage of the way shades blend and wash over each other. You're being subtly...polytonal? With those beautiful lydian bits all over the place, and your subtle, dulcet Christopher-Cross voice (I like Christopher Cross--that's a compliment)...it's a heady, beautiful mix of stuff.

5 out of 5 stars Sad songs for a winter's night.......2001-01-08

Gorgeous, melancholy music, evocative lyrics and imagery of loneliness. A unique sound, piano based, synth top with choral work grounded by the artist's lyrical baritone. Kind of folk, kind of jazz, very personal. The songs invite you in with repeated listening and have many layers and colors, like all good work. Overall sad songs, which is not a bad thing, though title song is more upbeat and almost swings.And it's always a rare treat to hear a man sing a love song to another man (Willie).
