4.0 out of 5 stars excellent, May 21 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Hourglass (Audio CD)

Three of these songs ("Enough To Be On Your Way," "Another Day," "Look Up From Your Life") would be worth the price of the disc. Fortunately, the rest of the songs are of similar quality.

The lyrics, especially on those three songs, have a maturity & emotional depth that stays with you after you've listened to them. And the arrangements are always uncluttered and efficient, so that they present the melodies & harmonies without overshadowing them.

Of course, this has been a great feature of JT's records from the beginning. He gets a lot of flack for being "Mr. Mellow," when the simple fact is that he & his folks just know how to write, arrange, and perform his songs perfectly. Some call mellow. I call it pretty damned fine.

What a delight. JT is getting better with age, like a fine wine. "Another Day" is my favorite track on the CD.
"Walkin My Baby Back Home" is a brilliant remake.

This guy still has it, and I wouldn't be surprised if he is still at it when he is 70. I also recommend seeing Jim's brother Livingston in concert. I saw him in Door County Wisconsin a couple of years ago, he is also a great entertainment, more of a comedian but almost as talented as JT.

I've been listening to James since college days in Ripon, Wisconsin.
