CD DetailsSynopsis
Album Description Randall Bramblett-a voice full of emotion and soul, a songwriter and a multi-instrumentalist with an emphasis on sax and keyboards. Thin Places was cut in Nashville with a couple of Randall stalwarts and a host of fine session musicians. It's a record that blurs the line between soul, pop and blues with standout tracks like the aching love song "You Can Be The Rain," the happy-go-lucky "Playing Card" and the surreal poem "Chet Baker." Thin Places is one of those albums where every song speaks to all in a strange and wonderful way. Over the years, Randall has toured the country playing with the legendary Steve Winwood, Widespread Panic, Gov't Mule and countless others. Randall again takes center stage with the release of Thin Places. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsDiscover Randall!!! E. Woontner | Fairfax, CA United States | 04/26/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "I was blown away by the several live performances of Randall Bramblett as a member of the Steve Winwood live band I witnessed since 1997. I have bought all of his albums and cannot recommend him enough - everything is excellent, music, lyrics, musicianship. He is a fantastic musician and composer that deserved to be discovered.Put on "Thin Places" and then drive away in your car. You'll be transported to another dimension, reflecting on oh so many aspects of life. One word of advice: his songs are more appreciated if you have lived a little. Teens need not apply.I hope he will tour the West sometimes, because I would love to hear his own compositions live." Rain, Angels & Holes in Souls Lee Armstrong | Winterville, NC United States | 10/13/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "Randall Bramblett's follow up to "No More Mr. Lucky" continues that excellent streak that brought "End of the String" & "Disappearing Ink." "Thin Places" begins with Davis Causey's great electric lead and Bramblett's passionate vocals on "Nobody's Problem," "The angel's arms are full of holes." "Playing Card" is an excellent tune with Shawn Pelton's hot drums keeping double time, "I'm just an old soul peekin' thru a hole in the wall." The track currently riding high in my personal top ten is the classic "You Can Be the Rain." Bramblett's exquisite songwriting skills amalgamating melody & lyric, the razor sharp band and his stunning vocals all collide, "Lookin' for a poem in the water stains on the floor, I'll be waiting here where the sky is clear, you can be the rain against my window." Bramblett slows down for the midtempo "Comin' Round Soon" blowing out a soulful sax for a touch of the blues, "As soon as I get it all planned out right, I'm gonna live a long & sinful life." Bramblett wails on the Hammond B-3 on "Black Coat," "There's nothing left to do but laugh & feed the angels, give 'em what they want in the February sun." Bramblett sounds like a stone-bleached Dylan on the tender "Confident Thieves," "These mudtrack boots are full of rain & nails; the dark fills in where the light has failed; neon dirt is turnin' red as blood; you can see your story written in the mud." "Chet Baker" is another excellent track with Bramblett's world-weary vocals, "I walk outside where the avalanche leans always ready to wipe this landscape clean, just a shrug of the shoulders where the tears should be." The CD concludes with the soulful midtempo "I Don't Care." "Thin Places" highlights a musician at the top of his game as a writer & singer. Bramblett's musicianship has always been stellar as his tours with Steve Winwood & the Allman Brothers would attest. His lyrics fill with images of rain, angels and the holes within souls. Enjoy this set and pick up "Mr. Lucky" too if you missed it! Bravo!" An incredible experience Gordon Harbison | Canton, Michigan United States | 03/15/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "If great entertainment always leaves you wanting more, then this qualifies as magnificent. You don't want this incredible sojourn of songs to end. Randall, longtime guitarist Davis Causey and friends, old and new, have crafted a masterpiece of exquisite musicianship swirling around eloquent and thought provoking lyrics, it is easy to lose yourself in this one. Didn't think it was possible to keep topping previous efforts, but Randall has done it again. Heartily recommended!"
