MP3 Beau Haddock - The Windingest River Finds The Sea

"His sound is refreshing in many ways, including his generally positive outlook that stands out among the prevalent whine of some Americana. Although he has his own distinctive style, occasional comparisons to James Taylor''s phrasing and timbre, as well as his evolving harmonic sophistication are inevitable. Mr. Haddock more than holds his own. James could do worse than to cover his material.
Harvest Moon Night succinctly showcases Mr. Haddock''s songwriting, interpretive, and arranging skills, as he creates an evocative, haunting mood by managing the space of his sparse arrangement, and icing it with a Toots Thielman approach to his harmonica solo.
Mr. Haddock has a rousing side as well, as evidenced by the irresistible Celtic-infused Distant Hills, and the satisfying Let Love Lead Your Way. Give this recording a chance, and you will surely feel better. How many CDs can offer that?"
