Customer Reviews:
Amazing.......2002-05-07
I first learned of Eric Hester when I saw him open for Larry Penn here in Milwaukee. A pleasent evening with many memorable songs, but one song cought me and still every time I hear it on this cd just swims right into a chink in my soul. Last Call is one of those songs where you constantly find yourself, how can anyone not be in awe of this art. Outstanding.
Fun, uplifting, disturbing.......2001-12-28
If you like folk singers who paint pictures with words, this is an album you need to pick up. Eric Hester's debut album is notably fun, uplifting, and disturbing. Consider the lyrics of Clarissa, a tale of love and woe, and a shark attack. This song also reminds be you never know when you're going to meet someone who knows someone you know. Equally notable are the mellow bridges between songs, leaving this listener wanting more and asking, "Can I have some more, Sir?" I am looking forward to Eric's new Spring release of "Blue Tattoo". Pick up Red, share it with a friend. Your spirits will rise, your lips will lift in a smile.
Great Find.......2000-01-12
I picked this up at used store in Portland and I love it! I came here to see if he had any more albums. You can really relate to him, his music is very true and emotional. I hope this guy's life gets better and he writes more songs.
FANTASTIC.......1999-10-11
I love this! I am a fan of new folk music (John Gorka, Dar Williams, Greg Brown, Ani DiFranco, etc.) and this guy is great. He writes songs that really make you think. Listen to type and see how long it takes you to get it. Its impressive, scarry really. I highly reccomend this cd to anyone looking for something new.
BUY THIS CD.......1999-09-28
This CD spans the emotional gammut, from sad (Somebody Better) to hopeful, sort of (Find a Gril) to downright hillarious (Clarissa). If you have ever been in a relationship with any living and breathing thing, yes even your goldfish counts. This album will speak to you on many levels.
