CD Reviews

Dolby at His Best
Michael Platt | Yorktown, Va | 12/20/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The songs sound better than the originals. I only wish it was a two-cd set with double the music (or, perhaps, a three-CD set?). The CD, like the concert, ended too soon. Dolby fans, new and old, will love this album."
THE GOLD INHABITANT
BRIAN A. LAFOUNTAIN | Hot Springs, Virginia United States | 12/07/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Thomas Dolby. Just that name alone causes fantastic feelings. I remember being unable to move when I first heard him. It was like a revelation. I was completely transfixed. His is a strange and provocative, moody sound that remains unparalleled. This collection of songs that span his entire career truly focus on the more complex aspects of his composing genius. If you want to slip away into a beautiful dreamscape of lush sounds and silky melodies, THE SOLE INHABITANT will make you feel all alone in Thomas Dolby's beautiful world."
Great LIVE version of classic TDolby hits
Christopher James Sajdak | Allen, TX USA | 12/05/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"It is amazing how Thomas can pull off these studio songs in a one-man concert setting. I especially liked "The Flat Earth", "Budapest By Blimp" and "Europa And The Pirate Twins" -- and everyone loves "Hyperactive" and "She Blinded Me With Science"!! Looking forward to future material from Thomas and a live show this week in Dallas, Texas."
