I was really impressed with the vocal range of Robert and the capabilities of his sound effects.  I had definite favorites and overall really enjoyed the album!  I am looking forward to the next one for sure!

it's refreshing to hear music that is entirely composed of a multitude of styles and sounds delightfully new.  this cd, will cure the blind, impregnate the infertile, or maybe just give you a boner.  any way you look at it... that's a good thing.  the satchmo/ billy holiday gutteral scat singing is a really hard thing to pull off without sounding crazy, but it is accomplished flawlessly here in.  the lyrics speak of obvious life experience in a beautifully poetic (albeit tragic) stream of consciousness that is so genuine in foundation that it is not at all difficult to empathise and see yourself in the music.   god bless robert german for creating this recording, which has redeemed my faith in new music.  buy it... you know... like i did.  totally worth every red cent.

Appropriately, the album is called “Sirens of Brooklyn.” The title is apt in more ways than one as German is possessed of a hauntingly skilled voice that calls to the listener from dark corners and blind alleyways encouraging them to step from the light into what might be an exciting adventure of dangerous proportions. German shifts and morphs his voice on several of the tracks to mimic the sounds of stringed instruments and horns in a jazz-scat sort of improvisational style that evokes a time out of time.
