Very professionally done. Excellent vocals, lyrics, and guitar.

My wife and I have seen Ozone play several times. We bought the CD and loved it. Some of the lyrics are haunting, some about real life. Some about love, deep and real. The music and engineering are as professional as any. Several of the songs could/should get radio airplay. This is no amature production...this is among the best.

good all around americana and rock and roll

Great voice..and really good guitar playing and sound. The CD is worth it if only for the song Breakdown Lane. If you don't tap your foot to this, you're probably deceased.

As cool as cool gets. Like if you freebased Tom Waits...

There are no self-aggrandizing lyrics or showoff riffs. This is inventive yet familiar music and song. Ozone can play guitar, harp and sing with anyone, and now we know he can write with them as well. These songs sing of all the nights, all the stories, the lies, the ripoffs, the glories, the really mad things done, and do so without regret or phoney nostalgia. It isn't like anyone else's record because Ozone isn't like anyone else. If I knew two guys like him I'd have been dead long ago. Some people arrive before they should, Ozone has been knocking at the door for too long. Buy the damn CD and let him in. You won't ever have a better friend. As good as ol
