A fine blend of wit and talent
author: Chris-GEN
Mike from The Awful Show gifted me with a download of your album, and I must say, it is extraordinary. Rarely in today's bloated and saturated music-scape is there such a fine blend of wit and talent. I am still laughing.
Thanks to Tha Mike and the Awful Show cast for the birthday gift and the opportunity to hear new and obscure artists. Keep it coming, and Ken -- Make more!

Can you relate to his kind of disturbed, what I've decided just cries out to be
author: myTunes — an iTunes blog
I'm guessing Ken Turetzky doesn't get invited to many debutante balls. From his album cover, with the little girl proudly holding up (what he claims is fake) poo, to a set of track names that promise your baser delights, we aren't looking at Dallas's upper crust here.
Even a superficially upbeat title like Today Was a Very Good Day, with its faux Cat Stevens vocals and cheery tone, delivers a message that would be out of place during National Brotherhood Week.
Turetzky's a disturbed individual, or at least he plays one on radio. Which leads to the only question that matters: can you relate to his kind of disturbed, what I've decided just cries out to be called Turetzky's Syndrome? Much as I hate to admit it, I certainly can.

Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Turetzky
author: Schnauzer Logic
Not a law firm, but a lineage of great composers with saliva-sapping last names leading up to the brilliant first release of singer/songwriter Ken Turetzky, "Look What I Made!"
And what has Ken has made? Just a mini-album of 5 songs, 3 of which have asterisks in their titles (a time-honored indication of musical and literary genius), traversing the breadth of human emotion and experience.
From "My Fat A*s Itches", a soulful lament anyone with an a*s can relate to, to "If They Found Me Dead", a soulful lament anyone with an a*s can relate to, "Look What I Made!" shines like the proverbial polished turd, squeezing out one musical nugget after the other, and featuring the Award® nominated, "Her S**t Don't Stink" (two asterisks, no waiting!)
To quote Shakespeare, "If you like this kind of thing, then this is the kind of thing you'll like!, forsooth"
"Look What I Made!" - and what did you make, Ken?
You made me think, Ken... you made me think.
And is there anything more we can ask of a comedy/music/folk album?
I think not.
