How are the guitar solo's on this one? I am enamored by their delivery on the live version. |

And the fitting thing is, this sounds like an ocean song. Unlike the other 3, Lindsey and Mick don't talk about sailing that much, but this song puts me in mind of it. It speaks of slow escape. I don't want to say it brings Christopher Cross to mind, but it definitely takes me away.

The songwriting, lyrically and melodically, is top notch. If he had turned this in as a demo to Fleetwood Mac, I think they'd be like: OK, Linds, let's DO that double album. And then they'd lay down some real drums on these tracks.
For me the next biggest flaw is the he didn't sequence it a la Neil Young. Open with Seeds We Sow (electric) and close with Seeds We Sow (acoustic). THEN, I think it would be a contender. But as it is, I, in my first impressions, prefer the SOUND of UTS and the peaks (DYMM! WFY! LRD! BAR! RPTF!!) on GOS. My faves so far (chronologically): TTWLG, SAC, WSCD, RAB, GTF, EOT. And I am not digging SSS, unfortunately comparing it to the fuller symphonic sound of the demo. Looking forward to second impressions...

And then there are the resplendent D.I.Y. innovations that put SWS into a class all its own.

Yes... Amazon.com has a couple of remixed/outtake tracks for download when you buy the mp3 version of Seeds We Sow.

Ok, so I just finished up my first listen of the album. First of all I have to disagree with all those who feel this is the 21st century Out Of The Cradle. I actually hear far more shades of Law & Order and especially Go Insane on this album.
As far as favorites, Illumination is the most delightfully quirky song... what a fun surprise! That song is like a sonic Shawshank Redemption... you never know what's going to happen next! I think it's the coolest thing on the whole damned album. My other big fav is Rock Away Blind... it's pure perfection. I very much like the updated version of She Smiled Sweetly too. As a whole, the album is beautifully arty and nicely paced. Oddly enough the songs I assumed would be my favs are actually at the bottom of my list: Stars Are Crazy and When She Comes Down. They're fine songs, they just didn't grab me the way I expected them to. All things totaled, I think this is a great little album and a real progression for Lindsey. Is it his best work? I don't think anything will ever eclipse Out Of The Cradle for me. But I definitely think this album easily stands shoulder to shoulder with his first 3.

I'm halfway through listening.
WOW. I'm listening to When She Comes Down. I love his voice. REALLY. Truly. That is all (for now). ETA: If he sings Gone Too Far live...I may not be responsible for my actions. It's right up there with everything else that's up there (ha!) Last edited by Regina; 09-05-2011 at 10:52 AM.. |

The only thing that reminds me of OOTC is Gone too far with that electric guitar popping up in the background. Other than that the album is very shimmery and even a bit quirkier like older LB albums. The album really picks up with Stars to When She Comes Down and into Rock Away Blind. I'm not crazy about One Take, but that doesn't matter. I love the vocals on this album. Seeds We Sow electric version is just great. It's dazzling and a good break from all the fingerpicking on the album....

I agree with the fact that it has nothing to do with OOTC, but for me, neither with the first two. I really think thas album stands on his own and is a step further in his development. And it sounds very contemporary 2011. Impressive.

I'm blown away. This is simply breathtaking!
In Our Own Time, That's The Way Love Goes, Stars Are Crazy, When She Comes Down, Rock Away Blind and End of Time are standout tracks for me. I'm in love! Gone Too Far makes me nostalgic for some old school Fleetwood Mac like whoa. I can just hear Christine and Stevie's harmonies on that song.
