CD Reviews

From Archers to Fingers
06/10/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've been a fan of Archers of Loaf and Eric Bachmann for years. This EP is a classic even for fans who miss the agressive early Archers stuff. It's covers, it's mellow, and it's beautiful renditions with enough originality to make you appreciate the creativity that Chris packs into his songs."
Waiting to hear more...

"I've only heard one song on this EP: the Prince song "When You Were Mine." It's enough to sell me on the rest though. The song is haunting and beautiful. Eric takes goofy Prince lyrics like "when you were mine, you were kinda sorta my best friend" and elevates them to the level of Leonard Cohen poetry. Raspy and sincere, his voice stays with you long after the song is over. A great piece for sad stalkers and lost lovers."
An absolute delight!

"A banjo, and stand-up bass, and a guy who sounds like Tom Waits with a cold...covering a Prince song and Bowie/Queen's UNDER PRESSURE. It's music that's inventive and wonderful, and will absolutely bring a smile to your face. Plus the cover of Springsteen's THE RIVER is better than the original."
