Dissapointment
Zee-eee-eeeeeeeee | 03/19/2006
(2 out of 5 stars)

"In the past few months, I have gotten super into all of Devendra's other works, and was excited for another little delicious surprise like the others when I first picked this album up. Oh, what a dissapointment I was in for. The album does not carry through it's energy as many of Banhart's other albums do so well. Also, having already heard many other versions of the same songs that are on here on his split album with Jana Hunter, I found these to be much more dull, and did not carry forward their emotion in the way that the other recordings do. That being said, Devendra is always quite alright, if not wonderful. I find his voice to be entirely charming, and he is generally a very talented song writer.



So, the moral? If you couldn't really get into this recording, please don't give up on Devendra yet. I highly recommend "Cripple Crow", his split album with Jana Hunter, and, if you are into music that is slightly more raw, "The Black Babies", which is my personal favorite."
Love his guitar sound

"I took a chance on this CD after catching a video of "A Ribbon" on TV. What caught me was his guitar playing...much more akin to classical than folk, although Nino Rojo proves that Devendra is a versatile musician whose songs cover a spectrum of moods and styles. He has a quirky sense of humor, an endearing vocal quiver, and nimble fingers that coax all kinds of sounds and patterns out of simple chords. Oh - and he's got a sexy voice. I haven't heard the other CDs, so I can't compare, but after hearing this one, I'll buy more."
