Summary: So Much More
Comment: Brett Dennen's best album so far. Look him up on Youtube. You will buy this album once you here a few of his songs.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very pleasing to the ears...
Comment: Brett's voice is quirky and sometimes reminds me of Paolo Nutini; he's also a wonderful song writer. This is a fine album with a great selection of interesting material.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Sophmore blues?
Comment: I think Brett is an up and coming force in jazz, and indie rock. His smooth sweet jams are so melodical and very thoughtful for such a young hippy. I just felt his first album was amazing, GET IT! You will be blown away, this was good but no explosion. Round three will be the test. Better than alot, but...I wanted so much more!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Enjoyable
Comment: Easy going, simple, laid back, and wonderful lyrics. I can listen to this music while my kids are around. That is important to me. I have to say I like his second album better than the first. It seems to me to be alittle more stripped down. I love it!!!

Summary: The voice of this generation
Comment: PLEASE listen to this kid!
I'm an old guy. I grew up in the Viet Nam era listening to Bob Dylan singing "The Times They Are A Changin'", to Phil Ochs, Simon & Garfunkel, and the revolutionaries Country Joe and the Fish and the Jefferson Airplane. The only thing WE did wrong then was we didn't overthrow the government, we became it, and we made it worse.
Enter Brett Dennen singing "I saw people's histories tatooed on their skins". I thought of the holocaust survivors whose story is dying as a new generation gives credibility to those who say it all never happened. Then he sings "I asked when is the revolution". Now? Please?
Our wonderful country is in some dark times. The top tenth of one percent of Americans now earn more than the bottom 50% combined. We have 40 million with no healthcare, and mindless war, and a sophomoric, pugnacious president. It's time for the revolution.
This kid is a lyrical giant at his ripe young late 20s age. His music has the same good but a little raw feel of the great poets of our prior generation. And his lyrics are so dead on, I still have a tear in my eye when I think of them.
Listen, listen to what he's saying. Maybe your heart can be thawed a little more like mine was. Thanks, Brett.

Editorial Reviews:
|
The Oakdale, Ca native continues to grow his fan base with a live show consisting of the honest songwriting of a Jack Johnson, the guitar work of Paul Simon and the attention grabbing energy of a Ben Harper leaving all in his wake of yearning for more.
