CD ReviewsTangled Strings Is A Gem Sherry Double | Cheyenne, WY United States | 06/03/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I found out about Stephen Jay through Weird Al's website and am so glad I did! This album is a gem. The music is fantastic - a mix of African, funk, jazz - it just creates a great listening experience. His lyrics are just as entertaining. I thought I might end up listening to a rather amateurish effort since I had never heard of him before, but I was 100% wrong. The way is album is mixed astounds me everytime I listen to it - which has been very often! I hear something new each time I indulge myself. The instruments used (which are plentiful) weave a wondrous sound. BUY IT! You'll keep this one near your CD player, trust me :-)" Stephen Jay: What A GUY! emo_phillips | Morgantown, IN USA | 07/07/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Tangled Strings is full of life. The songs come straight from steves heart. And you can't help but be moved by them. Stephen Jay has touched my heart with so many of his songs and helped me to have appreciation for alot of things in life that I some times take for granite. If you love to feel music and feel like your apart of something special, buy this album and check out his other albums at Stephenjay.com" Never heard anything like it! T. Launer | Virginia United States | 06/07/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I just love how unique the sound is. It's funky, blues-y, and contemporary all at the same time. I really was struck by the music, but as I started listening more closely, I was also impressed by the lyrics. Each song has so many layers. You hear something new every time. My favorite songs are 'Why Oh' and 'Air'. I recommend giving them a special listen."
