"Linus Of Hollywood's Your Favorite Record floats in and out of your brain like a beautiful dream.
Full of beautiful, sixties-like melodies and instrumentation, it is a record that could recall the most gorgeous of summer days, even in the dead of winter."
That's what Amplifier's John Holcomb wrote about Linus Of Hollywood's debut CD, which went on to land a spot in the well-respected magazine's "Top Pop Albums of 1999" alongside pop veterans XTC, Matthew Sweet, Guided By Voices, and Fountains of Wayne.
Happy melodies, lush harmonies, and magical arrangements are a few specialties of this one-man band known as Linus Of Hollywood.

After selecting three cd's to buy and checking out I found this one and ordered it as well the same day. Turns out that this was my favorite by far. If you like catchy happy powerpop that gets your foot tapping this is one to get. I am already considering buying the rest of his cd's.

A gorgeously melodic album that will make you ooh and ahh like the first time you fell in love. Sure this record sounds like a 1960's pop flashback, but that's a good thing. Linus of Hollywood will pick you up and put you down and leave you starry-eyed and heartbroken all at once. This album more than lives up to it's superlative title, and it will be your favorite record for many years to come.

This Linus character has made one great record. "Say Hello to another Goodbye" is an amazing song with all the things that make classic pop so great...the harmonies,intersting arrangement,and cool instrumentation. "Nice to Be Pretty" has great lyrics as well as a super catchy chorus, and "When I get to California" has all the great Beach Boys-isms anyone could ask for, but it still sounds like LINUS ...
Buy this and it will be YOUR FAVORITE RECORD too !
Can't wait for the next one.
