"An absolutely wonderful CD, one that l played many times.
I knew straight away that here was a CD that would be very
well received here in Melbourne!"
Peter Merrett
Music Manager
PBS 106.7 FM Melbourne, AU
 
" You're a hell of a writer!"
Jerry Lawson
Lead Singer of The Persuasions
 
"Tennessee Boy rings true of Johnny Cash
and it strike’s me as right out of an Elmore Leonard book.
He’s a real writer.  You’re not going to hear
songs like this on the radio."
Todd Wachtel
The Jersey Toddshow
 
"(His) songs feature strong men in High Noon  
situations, armed with a guitar, women are
loved, men are killed, hearts, noses and
backs  are broken. His voice is strong and  
carries the songs with conviction, the rock or  
the ballad"
David Cowling
Americana UK
 
"My favorite Americana rocker!"
D’Michael “the Nooge” Noogeman
Westsidewill Radio Chicago
 
"While many artists struggle to find their  
unique voice, James seems to have
effortlessly found his with a body of work that  
taps into the same musical heritage as artists
such as Buddy Holly, Hank Williams, and
Johnny Cash. "
   Edward J Randolph                            
Editor of 'The Music Box'
 
"The dénouement is an evocative slow song that leaves the
listener wondering and wanting more. You’ll commiserate with
the loss of “Honey Belle”, a wonderfully sweet country-
inspired ballad of heart break. And you’ll ponder what other
musical gems the Late Model Humans have up their sleeves!"

MUSIC REVIEW OF THE NEW LATE MODEL HUMANS CD FALLEN ANGELS 4 STARS!
EXCERPT: "... If you listen you’ll quickly find poetic verse and bare emotion that boost
these fourteen songs to a higher level of cool.... The opening track “The Little Things You
Do” is an enthusiastic love song, but it’s followed by the Clash-esque “Pick Up the Gun.”
This tune shows us a montage of gritty scenes and includes the lyric “fool me once, shame
on you, fool me twice I’ll kill everyone.” That tune and the others written by James
Power tend to have a darker edge than those by his band-mates, including his brother and
long-time collaborator Michael..."

THE LATE MODEL HUMANS
While I'm interested in any reviews of my work, this next one was a bit baffling. The
reviewer contacted me out of the blue to review my albums for his website AltCountry.nl. I
agreed and several weeks later he notified me that his review had been published. The
problem I had, and still have, is that he didn't tell me the review would be written in
DUTCH! His emails were in English so I figured the review would be as well. Anyway,
when he notified me that the CD reviews were published he let me know he really liked my
"rockin' tunes". As best I can tell from his "Ach James" comments in the review, his eyes
must have glazed over at anything that wasn't balls-to-the-wall rock n roll. Anyway, I do
appreciate the review, John Gjaltema. Thanks for listening... Now, can somebody please
translate this for me?
