Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars masterful.......2003-03-03

Passionate and unusually fine vocal. This album can move you and focus your thoughts.

2 out of 5 stars BUMMER! STINKS! Only gets second star when compared to "Rap".......2003-01-12

What a disappointment! I want to kick the ... of those folks at AMG- All Music Guide, which used to be one of my favorite websites for giving this lousy album 4 stars. 4 STARS- HA! I bought this because the band Traffic plays throughout, but even Steve Winwood, etc can't save songs like "Withered Roses" when the ever-annoying Shawn starts with his silly vocal "contributions." What is the big deal about this guy's singing, anyway? The AMG site compared him to Donovan "with a better voice" in songs like "Lovely Lady." What a joke! Now, I can only appreciate Donovan more, and to the reviewer for this "artist" I do like songs by their own merit and not because they were hits (for instance, I love songs like "Sand and Foam" and "Celeste" by Donovan that are beautiful and not so fruity like Shawn buddy's tunes are here). You threw away your Blue Oyster Cults records, well some of that may have been suited for the garbage, but Shawn Philip's CONTRIBUTION is about to be a companion for the empty pizza box and used napkins I just tossed in the thrash can.
