I feel like complimenting on you. This is an amazing piece of art. Your voice sounds dark and warm, the music perfectly fits in with it. I'm speechless, absolute quality work. Thank you.

Robin Grey's album is so enchanting that I had to write a barely literate review of it at the net's most amateurish free music blog, Catching The Waves.

As I don't have a clue about html, please copy this and paste it into your address bar: http://tinyurl.com/dgzej2

Failing that, just ignore me and listen to this beautiful album.

This is not only the best album I've downloaded from Jamendo, it's one of my top two or three albums that I've ever owned. Robin Grey writes beautifully evocative lyrics that place the listener in the speaker's emotions. I listen to this album a minimum once a week, often more, because it is that good. I'm hoping Grey will have a third album in the foreseeable future.

Great album

16/09/10

This is a lovely album. Like others have said, there is a warmth in Robin's voice that is captivating. Clearly, he is a story teller. The lyrics carry me along wanting to hear how the story ends but never wanting to end at all. I admit that "Women" is a song I could do without but the rest are gems!

The reason I listened to the album in the first place was the cover photo. I really like the space it creates. And the dog kind of there as a surprise! It reminds me of album covers from the great folk singers of the 60's. Great design.

More than a reincarnation

30/03/10

When I first heard your music, I was already impressed. I felt a strong resemblance to artists like Sufjan Stevens, but hearing the whole album over and over again, the music surprises and impresses everytime you put it on. I feel that especially the voice, but also the lyrics and the perfectly fitting instrument play add a new dimension to what is known as neo-folk. Please continue to make more awesome music.

I'm usually not into folk music much, i like every genre but i love the 1st song "These Days" its amazing, reminds me of Josh Ritter and his song "Good Man" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C81SyunWMAQ
