His sandpaper croon sounds like church, Van Morrison and dusty porches.

5.0 out of 5 stars
gentle poet,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Trouble (Audio CD)
Ray LaMontagne's voice and music are soft and gentle but utterly beautiful and powerful. I bought Trouble and Till the Sun Turns Black at the same time, immediately after sampling songs on Amazon. I played Trouble first and loved it so much that I played it about 6 times before even getting around to hearing Till The Sun Turns Black. I wanted to fully enjoy one first. I was relieved that Till The Sun Turns Black was just as enjoyable. It's a bit different, not quite as "raw" as Trouble, maybe more produced but still thoroughly enjoyable. Ray LaMontagne was quite the find for me, a gem. I was originally looking up David Gray and buying White Ladder (which I bought at the same time), then saw that "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" Ray LaMontagne, and so I clicked to sample his music (I LOVE that feature on Amazon). I'm really glad that I did. His music is soft and understated but FAR from boring. His quiet poetry speaks to us profoundly.

Simply The Best,

This review is from: Trouble (Audio CD)
I first heard a Ray Lamontagne song in the movie "She's The Man" which featured "Hold You In My Arms". It marked the beginning of a long love affair, that I feel I'm still in. :)Lamontagne's music is almost bluesy, a bit of grassroots, very indie, and folky to the max. I personally love listening to his music when feeling introspective or sad. It's soothing, comforting, and seems to help me think better.

Ray Lamontagne: like pure maple syrup for your soul,
By
This review is from: Trouble (Audio CD)
The first song I heard from Ray Lamontagne's debut CD, "Trouble", found that certain place in my soul where few have traveled. Once inside, it met up with the feelings I have when I listen to anything by James Taylor, vintage Jackson Browne and Van Morrison, among others. It's a calm that will soothe you with a comforting familiarity. A few of these songs were featured on the F/X program, "Rescue Me", starring Denis Leary, and perfectly portray the struggle inside the main character.
