If your tired of all the commercial garbage plagueing the airwaves...
author: Jeff Brunton
This CD is really a breath of fresh air. As you listen to the lyrics, gracefully weaving their way through the melodies, you find yourself immersed in a story/life line that just might be quite similar to your own. Steve has a gift of putting into music what most of us feel as we grow into our individual everyday lives. IMO very few artists have been able to capture that kind of true-grit into their music in the same humble way that he has. Hats off to Steve for staying true to himself and sharing this wonderful music with us.

Experiences play well in this eclectic collection that will certainly feed your head...and more importantly...your soul.

Strong, insightful lyrics meld with warm and catchy melodies
author: Elisabeth Becker
While the Steve Johnson is a solid talent on the piano, his insightful lyrics are the strength of this new CD. "Last Train," one of the most catchy tunes ever, compares a disregard for the values of your life to "losing your ticket for the last train of the night." The final song on the album, "Child's Philosophy," is a precious song honoring the simpler things in life. This CD is perfect for driving music, or curling up in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine. Check it out!
