Album Notes

To my way of thinking, this collection of fifteen songs is an album in the truest sense of the word. Each song is like a photograph. It's a time, or a place, or a feeling, that's been captured in music. The styles of the songs range from rock to jazz to blues and pop, which reflects the huge wellspring of influences from which they came...

I should probably mention that this was never intended to be a commercial release, it's actually a collection of "Demo's and Sketches" that I put together as an archive of places I'd lived or visited musically. Two of the songs (Whisper and London Bridge) I ended up re-recording on the subsequent CD "The Sun and the Moon"...the fidelity was better, and I was able to flesh them out the ideas a little more, but these initial recordings retain an indefinable "something" for me, so I decided to retain those songs on this most recent edition as well.- J.H. 6/06

...By the way, for those that enjoy the acoustic side of this album, here's a link to another album I have available here on CDBaby!

There are a few wordsmiths out there, indeed; there are great guitar players and superb vocalists. James has 'em all.

James is a wonderful architect of music. His flawless musicianship and poetic lyrics continue to inspire me more and more each time I listen to them. This CD has something in it for everyone. It is the most eclectic CD I have purchased in a long time. His acrobatic guitar style and beautiful lyrics are enough to make any foot tap and body sway. A must have for any fan of REAL music.

All of the songs on this CD are thought provoking, deep songs. I hope that the rest of the fans of music listen with an open mind. Personal fave, "I Wonder".... I truly do.

James Hurley was a new name to me, but my money was well spent! A great mix of electric and acoustic tracks which reminded me a lot of Ian Parker. Who? Find his website!!! Am I the only Blues fan in Wales with this cd? I hope not - it deserves a wide audience. Thank you James.
