Having been a fan of Derrin's music for a few years now, I've been eagerly awaiting this album and I was certainly not disappointed.

From the opening seconds of the first track, Universe Demands, my foot was tapping, my head bobbing. The track has all the power and presence of the live performances of it I've seen which I find are rarely carried over to album recordings for most artists. This feeling continues right through until the end of the album, without any break.

With some great bass work, some impressive drumming and of course Derrin's awesome guitar work and vocals, this album really delivers. Highlights for me are My Hurricane, possibly the finest track I've heard form any artist in the last few years, which sweeps you through a fantastic solo that I never want to end, Where Two Men Go Tonight, and the beautiful All The Faces.

This album grabs you, pulls you in and doesn't let go. I can't see this being far from my stereo for quite some time.

Basically, you need this album. I want music to move me, and this does, everytime.

Wonderful.

The Wizard of Oz 28 Jun 2006

This might not be the album you expected from the great Aussie Acoustic entertainer, but that depends on how long you have been following this shining star. For 5 years Derrin Nauendorf (no-en-dorf) has been endlessly touring as a solo or duo, he has been enchanting crowds with his stunning guitar skills, fascinating lyrics and explosive vocals. Underpinning all of these gigs is a nice guy full of energy and a passion to entertain.

This album is Derrin with a difference, that difference being a band. Derrin has put together a group that compliments his music perfectly. With the addition of drums, stand up bass and occasional mandolin, harmonium and backing vocals Derrin has created a sound that fits in perfectly with his flamboyant style.

The songs are taken from Derrins previous albums (1 from Natural, 2 from Boardwalk, 3 from Wasteland and 3 from New History) and also two new tracks. The re-recorded tracks have all been re-invented for this release so in no way is this a "best of" album. They are less acoustica and more Americana (or should that be Aussi-karma!), the first two tracks have obvious single potential. The acoustic purists may not like this CD as much as New History and some of Derrins avant-garde playing skills (neck bending, body tapping and the awesome resonating didgeridoo sound) are missing but this does not detract from a collection of great tracks.

The songs range from rocky to melancholy and all have the trade mark lyrics Derrin produces. The highlights of the CD for me are the two new tracks, Universe Demands and My Hurricane, and old tracks Where Two Men Go Tonight (great input from the Singh brothers) and Deliver Me An Angel which you just have to sing along with the chorus (well I do!).

The CD is well packaged with full lyrics in a glossy booklet. A brilliant album from one of Australia's greatest exports.

With the influx of boring, repetative, poorly written and performed music I can honestly say this album has restored my faith in the human ability to deliver fine music.

After reading the recent review in the Sunday Express and getting alot of hassle from my brother, I thought this would be a worthwhile purchase and without a doubt it lived up to the glowing report and much more.

Derrin's musical ability amazes me, not only because it sounds awesome but you can feel the passion and truth behind each song.

I can not say one bad thing about any of the songs on this album, each track compliments the others and it's a perfect album to listen to whatever mood you are in.

My only wish is that Derrin was more well known so more people could get the enjoyment from his music that I have.

A well deserved 5 stars, I can't wait to hear more of his stuff and one day see him live.
