every song on this CD has a different vibe to it, but still has the signature Scott Lamps stamp on each song. beautiful lyrics and string arrangements. some of the most simple production in songs such as "Singing" make the song sound so big! scott lamps is pretty much a god.

awesome, great lyrics and beautiful music. Buy it.

“Music is Art” features songs reminiscent of the days of the great singer-songwriters, a crowd that has all but vanished in the industry. The heart-felt vocal performances in “Reading Your Mind,” “Where Has Gone,” and “Last Love Song” give the songs a genuinely sincere feel. This continues in the melancholy “Days Gone By,” which tells the bittersweet tale of a man longing for a past love. “Circles,” the opening track, effectively articulates the struggles of a life without direction, while the ocean-like sway of “Singing” only amplifies the lyrical beauty of the story. Lamps’ fans will be happy to hear fresh versions of old favorites like “Lay My Head,” “Interstate People,” and “Same Old Song and Dance.” If there were to be one complaint, it would be the reworked version of “Last Time,” which is far from a disappointment. While the added vocals in the bridge add to the song’s depth, the driving Spanish-style guitar part of earlier versions is absent, leaving this reviewer slightly disappointed. That disappointment disappears as soon as the undeniably catchy “The Next To Break Your Heart” comes to mind—it’s just plain fun. After one listen, don’t be surprised to find yourself playing it on repeat. From beginning to end, Lamps truly shines in his first solo effort, undoubtedly proving that music is art- and his is a masterpiece.
