WRITER/MUSICIAN/SINGER/ARTIST/LEGEND
There have been a few reviews of the Real, Real Man and Songs for Broken Hearts CD's, so I thought I'd post them as
they come in. The best review so far was from one of the true legends of Soul, Mr Jerry Lawson, former lead singer of
The Persuasions, who said I was "A hell a writer!" (Click here for more details) That's gonna be a hard one to top!
MUSIC REVIEWS
I got a particularly nice review from the Americana UK web magazine. The reviewer, David Cowling, did a great job
reviewing Real, Real Man as an album and not just a collection of songs (there is a difference). His references to
High Noon and the "storyteller armed with a guitar", where "women are loved, men are killed, hearts, noses and backs
are broken" was great! And "His voice is strong and carries the songs with conviction, the rock or the ballad, real real
men have feelings and can cry" was also a nice touch. Well done, Mr Cowling! Much obliged!

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. Luckily I can do that, but I do
other things also. I like ballads - sue me. Anyway, I do appreciate the review, John Gjaltema. Thanks for listening...
Now, can somebody please translate this for me?
