Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this album on impulse after seeing an advert on TV and I'm now very glad for my impulsive nature! All of the other reviews already posted have hit the nail right on the head. This album is fantastic: good vocals, solid beats and rythms, what more could you as for?
I agree with the Amazon product description, it is very much a "sitting round a campfire" style of music, but I just happen to love that style!
Having read other reviews explaining the way he plays i.e. fairly complicated guitar work and doing the drum beats himself by slapping the guitar, my respect for him is huge. As a guitarist myself, listening to the tracks and trying to figure out how he's doing it brings it home. I wouldn't pass up the chance to see him live!
If you like this style of music or just want some good old fashioned good unpretentious music, give this album a go!

Excellent debut album 24 Sep 2007
By B. Wright VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
This album was bought for me as a birthday present, and I really like it. There's a feel-good mood throughout and you can't help be buoyed by Newton's exuberance and obvious pleasure in performing.

He's a fantastic guitarist, using a popping and slapping technique similar to Eric Roche (who was a big influence on him) or Michael Hedges, and it's refreshing to hear someone with genuine talent. He's not a bad vocalist either, though on occasions the songs sound a little like Snow Patrol. It's not ground-breaking, but it is something different to the stream of indie bands that are around at the moment, with Newton turning to a more experimental pop sound, driven by an acoustic guitar.

The quality isn't totally consistant, as a few of the tracks towards the end drop off, but the singles are likely to get stuck in your head for days, and it's hard not to be impressed by the maturity of the song-writing for the most part. Newton Faulkner will be one to watch for the future, and this is a strong debut which is definitely worth owning. I've not moved it from my stereo for days now.

Superb talent 21 Sep 2007
Format:Audio CD
Went to see John Mayer in the Albert Hall recently and Newton Faulkner opened for him. He was on for about a hour and every piece was superb. He is an excellent entertainer and well worth listening to. A very talented guitar player. He gave John Mayer a very tough act to follow. Naturally I bought the album on my way home. It has been being played in the car ever since and quite a few people have been converted as a result. Buy it and I think you will be too.

An OK album spoiled by an awful production.
To be fair when reviewing any "art form" a lot is in the individuals taste, if one person likes something and another doesn't who is right? Read more

This album has some excellent tunes, but like his previous albums Newton seems to put in some really average songs. Read more

Easy listening that is really sissy

Brilliant Album
Love Newton Faulkner CD and DVD both brilliant! The DVD encouraged me to buy tickets for his upcoming tour - hopefully it will be as good.

Not as good as I had hoped
I was hoping for great things but still haven't really got into the CD as yet. Maybe I will just have to keep at it a bit longer to see if it grows on me.
