5 out of 5 stars Delightful AAA-oriented pop goodness.......2005-10-06

I've been a big fan of James' music since his days with The Tories. While 'So Much for Secrets' is most definitely *not* from the same vein as the Jellyfish-esque power pop of his previous band, James demonstrates a lifetime's worth of evolution as a singer, songwriter and musician since his not-so-distant Tories days.

Gotta agree with the first review - I've not gotten sick of this CD after 3 weeks of spinning it at least 1x/day. After week 1, I found myself looking beyond the lush harmonies and deft guitar/bass work (most of which is all James himself) and taking a closer look at the lyrics. Wow. Really thoughtful stuff. Then later, I found myself noticing some really subtle-yet-unusual and really interesting effects layered onto a couple of tracks -- the producer really outdid himself here.

Net-net, this disc is an onion (in all the good ways). It's got a lot of flavor, plenty of layers to peel back, and might even make you cry a little if you're not careful.
