"I walked into a music store with this cd playing and bought it on the spot. This is probably the best cd I've heard in a decade. I never get sick of it - can't go a day without listening to it. The music is great - great guitars - great vocals - but the lyrics are incredible. The messages in these songs go right to the core - if you've ever had your heart blown wide open and found yourself in so much pain and passion that life has brought you to your knees while all your wildest dreams were on the cusp of coming true, you'll relate to these songs. Some of my favorite phrases from this cd are: "Everytime I think I'm clean, fate evens up the score, I never considered that this ache would keep coming back. It's an evil wind that's kicking me along." "You want someone to count you out, but there is no referee." "I want to live my life like a blind man - never looking back." "One man's ceiling is another man's floor."Simple lyrics, profound messages."

"I~ LOVE~ THESE~ GUYS! This is the best CD I've purchased in the last 2 years. Buffalo Nickel's sound is sort of a cross between the Gin Blossoms and the Eagles - Southern / Alternative Rock at it's best. If you are planning a road trip any time soon, you need this one for your car. The best tracks (and lines) are: This Ain't Nowhere ("I've seen the light between wrong and right")Miss America & I ("what the hell did I know about right, I've been wrong all my life")Good DayComing Up RosesStayed (my favorite track)Evil Wind ("four sets of tires later, this ache is still as strong, it's an Evil Wind that's pushin' me along")Actually, they're all great tracks. Buffalo Nickel is a much welcomed break from the over-abundance of kiddie dance garbage and cRAP "music" that currently permeates the airwaves. Buy this CD and take it on the road."

"The Black Crowes wish they could make a record this good. This album ...oops CD (hey it is called Long Play 33 1/3)is excellent from start to finish. It hasnt left my CD player since I bought it. Its one of those CD's that keeps getting better every time you hear it - the vocals, lyrics, everything sound great and it has some awesome rock slide guitar in it. Fool Enough, Stayed and One Man's Ceiling are wondefully crafted songs. One Mans Ceiling has a soulful sound with an infectious harmony part in it - whoo hoo hoo whoo hoo hoo.....This is one of the best CD's Ive heard in a long long time. I highly recommend it!"
