CD ReviewsDIGGIN' THIS TUNNEL OF LOVE 10/27/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "She's out there somewhere, and she still thinks of you. Driving alone on a country road, or walking a rainy street downtown, she reflects on how things might have been different. Looking in the mirror, it occurs to her that she's known you half her life. If you encountered her by chance, you might say, casually, "You can call me anytime, for this or that." And then add, "or you." So often, what's most personal is universal. Wampeters are a band with vision and virtuosity, and Murder Your Darlings is an astonishing, guitar-driven exploration of the heart's ironies." Rave reviews! S&E of the music scene say 4 thumbs up! 11/04/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "The major flaws with this CD is that not enough persons have heard it and it ends sooner than you want it to. Like many CDs, it requires a couple of listens before you're singing the 'tunes in your head. But once Doyon crawls inside of you, he's in deep and there to stay. And, if you listen closely and overlay the lyrics on your own life, what a helluva story they tell. Definitely worth the investment."
