The journey is one that you certainly won't find in many (if any) albums anywhere. Kennedy's ability to deeply tell a story in each of his songs is something that puts him in a different Top 20. Great music. Real music. Excellent CD. Karlie, I think that was very constructive feedback – a lot about this album really rocks.

I've been enjoying it a lot. There's an ease (as far as sound) about his music that I really like. I'd definitely pay to see him if he came anywhere close to me (hint. hint.).:) I'm a fan.

I've been meaning to get his music, but since it's not conveniently digitally available on Amazon or Emusic, I haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm interested in this album though.

The closest I've ever gotten to being in a country song was Phil Vassar's "Carlene," so plus one for Drew. ;) Oh, and on the song “Caroline,” the name “Karlie” (I’ll take the liberty of spelling it my way) is included in the chorus.

I guess when I think of "twang," for me, it's usually more of an accent or phrasing, while in this case it's almost more of a tone. On some of the songs, I felt like it was distracting, while it worked well on others. That's my personal taste I suppose. Rick - Thanks, I appreciate it. I don't even think I can compare the two, because they're so different in terms of style--Drew stretches the limit of being "country" (which I don't think is a bad thing) while Jamey, to me, is definitively so. But they definitely share a huge gift in songwriting. Kelly – I’ll agree with you that it’s a trademark for Drew.

But the real question is how does this guy stack up against Jamey Johnson? Hmm... That review was very well written Karlie and a pleasure to read.

I think his distinctive twang is as valuable as the unusual nature of many of the lyrics. “Kennedy’s voice can skew nasally…”
