CD Reviews

World Wide Appeal
Sam Stone | New York | 05/19/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"When I first put this record on, I was expecting the same sardonic toungue-in-cheek wit that was on Unauthorized. What I got was definitely a surprise. This album is not as funny as some of their previous works but it has much more emotional depth. There is a conviction in the songwriting and a confidence in the presentation that makes this album a much more serious work. And that's a good thing! It's just as addicting as any of their other records but I think that this album will reach many more people than just the literary or scientific amoung us. And then I found myself feeling a little bit of melancholia over this--like I've lost this band to the world. They used to feel like my own personal discovery--now I feel a bit like a mother who's dear children have grown and left home! I say this affectionately--I wish them all the best and I hope that I'm correct in thinking that this album will find it's way into a much larger arena than they have previously experienced."
Superbly jazzy mood
M. R. F. Massier | Waddinxveen Netherlands | 08/04/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Once in a while you stumble upon a rough gem. This cd is such a gem. It contains deliciously jazzy songs. Some with a positive beat, such as the fantastic 'dog's life' and 'everlasting no', some with a slightly gloomy touch, such as 'small black heart'.

It's unpolished sound is completely in line with the music, and adds to the atmosphere.

Kelly Flints voice is a delight, and fits with the change in moods. It reminded me of a Dutch singer-songwriter, Fay Lovsky.

The only disappointment is the opening song, which is quite monotonous and, actually, boring.

Still, I can easily forgive them for that, considering the enjoyment of the other songs.



If you like this style, I strongly recommend trying Working Nights from Working Week, the absolute number one jazzy-pop albums ever produced.

Playful, funny and sophisticated new sounds for the summer

"I've been a "Dave's True Story" fan for years. Kelly Flint has one of the best voices around. Dave Kantor's music and lyrics are intelligent, original, very sophisticated and great listening. Kelly delivers them with terific style. This new album represents a development in their style that is exciting and fun. This is Cole Porter for the 21st Century."
