Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

With producer T-Bone Burnett, whose credits include Bob Dylan and Wallflowers, New York based singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur has made the musical equivalent of the most telling of trips to the psychiatrist's couch. However, the deepest words, most tranquil of acoustic ballads and savage guitar assaults are tempered by the catchiest pop melodies. It's a delicate balance, rarely pulled off as masterfully as on Come To Where I'm From. Lines like "In The Sun"'s "I know I would apologise if I could see your eyes, 'cos when you showed me myself, I became someone else" might allude to a subject without spelling it out in foot high letters, but the aching melodies, haunting vocals and acoustic strains leave no doubt that this is a man searching the darkest corners of his soul. By the sound of "Ashes Everywhere", "Invisible Hands" and "Creation Or A Stain", what he finds on those voyages isn't always easy to deal with, but it's still a touching and beautiful journey. Glorious is the only word that comes close to describing it. --Dan Gennoe

5.0 out of 5 stars The album of your life...and then some!, 3 Oct 2000
If you are into discovering new singers, then stop looking any further. This guy is not a star, he is THE STAR! Wonderful melodies, heartbreakingly-superb songs and a masterpiece of which the world has been waiting impatiently to be released.

4.0 out of 5 stars No regrets at all, 13 Dec 2008
By Mr. John L. Dixon (Cardiff, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this after using Shazam to tag 'In The Sun' from an episode of Scrubs, and the rest of the album lives up to the first track. A bit late to the party, I realise, given that it was released eight years ago, but if you're a fan of well-constructed, thoughtful songs that feel like you're sharing a little bit of the songwriter's life, then I'd recommend this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Unique Vocal and a good feel for melody., 28 Oct 2000
By A Customer
Elvis Costello, Patti Smith and even Bob Geldorf and John Lydon. This man sounds nothing like any of them but he possesses their great characteristics. A strong and individualistic vocal delivery, originality and above all, diversity. Found him through a cover mounted CD on Uncut magazine and the track 'Ashes Everywhere' and went straight for the album. Try it online for yourself but keep your credit card handy. You will not resist.
