Gut reactions- this album is classic solo Lindsey and he's having a 'great day' with his guitar! Great Day is a wonderful start. I haven't totally warmed up to Time Precious Time. His guitar has a fluid sound to it, reinforced by the lyrics "half deep half empty," but I am too impatient with the song itself. I listened through it twice, but I was fighting an impulse to hit "skip."

I already loved Did You Miss Me, and Wait For You was a powerful rocker follow up!!! How can you go wrong by including an arachnid? It's no black widow, but it made me smile. No one knows his name, but I think that passing tarantula will hold his own just fine.

Then, POW, another rocker! Love Runs Deeper could well be my favorite on this whole album! THIS is what I've been waiting for, and Lindsey delivers it! I have had this one on replay ALOT! This one song, to me, is the core of the album!

Bell Air Rain is a good song. It's got that running water thing happening again, but it's not as grating to me like Time Precious Time was, until the end of the song. There's a lot of personal references in it-- that's what makes it interesting, but it's not one of the stronger outtings on the album to me.

The Right Place To Fade is a delightful song and it's sure a keeper! It's energized, it's fun, it's optimistic-- way to go Lindsey!

Gift Of Screws is a lot of fun, and, yes, Lindsey's manical laughing is hysterical! I have no idea what he's talking about "to the left, to the right," but he's totally playing and having a good time and it translates well.

Underground is a pretty song. It's no rocker, but Lindsey likes those quieter pretty ones from time to time, and it works. I don't think he sold his heart for the dreams in his head, but only he can answer that one. What's that all about?

Treason. I was curious to hear the words and listen to what this song would sound like: it's very sad. As Elton John sings it, 'sad songs say so much.' I really like this song. I bet Elton would too.
