Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Excellent debut.......2005-08-18

This album is chock full of beautiful melodies that grow on the listnener with repetition. The comparisons to Elliot Smith may be overstated, but mostly because Morgan has created something uniquely his own here. Can't wait for the next album.

2 out of 5 stars I wish I had my dollar back.......2005-07-04

What a snoozer! I love Elliott Smith, but Andrew Morgan is a far cry from his late friend and mentor. I can't even listen to the entire album due to intense boredom.

4 out of 5 stars Review of Andrew Morgan at ThreeImaginaryGirls.com.......2005-04-17

Elliott Smith fans take note: while nobody could ever replace Elliott, Andrew Morgan will surely bend your Smith-missing ears in a positive direction. As Morgan's friend and mentor, Elliott obviously had his influence, but Morgan takes Smith's sweet melancholy and adds the cinematic effect of orch-pop to create an album that's emotional, improvisational, and ambitious.

Morgan's musical sound incorporates so many instruments, you wonder if there were any that weren't played on this album. In addition to the customary piano/guitar/percussion mix found in most bands, Morgan's album credits musicians on cello, viola, French horn, harp, tympani (I had to grab my dictionary for that one), sleigh bells of all things, and many more. This cornucopia of instrumentation results in a sometimes playful sound similar to The Shins.
