Sam Amidon is an exceptional performer - quirky, surreal, and deserving far greater exposure.Over several excellent CDs he has now also built up a fine summation of his recorded talent.He takes a tune from a distant American past and re-presents it to us with its often bleak message and unpredictable pacing but leavened by witty instrumentation and his uncompromising and beautiful voice.Most of the tunes have lyrical outcomes that are not of a cosy 20th century predictability but beneath it all Sam frequently one feels subscribes to Oscars' old adage that "you would have to have a heart of stone not to laugh" Anyone interested in a voice that significantly re-imagines and invigorates a lost musical age should buy this highly accessible album and go and see him -- he is a fabulous entertainer.

Sam Amidon doesn't have the same recognition as many of his contemporary folk artists but he should be. This album is one of the best of the year! This album is the first I have heard Sam's music and it is incredible. A must have for any fan of modern folk music!

I created an account just so I could let everyone know just how talented Sam Amidon is. I discovered his music yesterday and was instantly won over. Today I have But This Chicken Proved Falsehearted and I See The Sign. They are both consistently great the whole album through. I look forward to adding All Is Well to my collection later on this afternoon! If there's any doubt in your head whether or not to buy this album push them out because I promise it will be worth it. You too will come back for the others. Enjoy!
