Joe Budnick and this CD are some of the best things that ever happened to singer

The UMO open mic is just incredible and I recommend it highly to aspiring singersongwriters and people who just want to sit on a nice Sunday afternoon and have a good drink or a coffee and listen to some great musicians (some not so great but that's expected at any open mic obviously). This CD is a result of something beautiful and tremendous and there are some truly wonderful and strong artists on this CD. Michael Disalvo III is a firecracker- "I'm Gone" is one of his open mic hits but he has many great songs- you can get a glimpse at www.myspace.com/mdthree. And the music of Jeff Jacobson is fantastic. This CD is really something worth supporting.

Extremely good CD. Looking forward to the next one.

My favorite track is Steve Chizmadia's The Waltz Mamou. Someone please offer this guy a recording contract. Beautiful melody, romantic lyrics, could listen to him all day. Breck Alan's One More Day is fun, original and quirky. Sounds a bit like it was inspired by Adam Sandler. I also think that Chris Van Cott's Show Me, Sour Grapes' We'll Try Everything, Addison's Stay Awhile and Ellsworth's Up Above the World are very good. Can't wait for the next UMO CD.

The CD is great-My co-Ladies Society President and I gave it a listen and we had to go see the fabulous musicians ourselves. Seeing the Sour Grapes live and in person was definitely the highlight of the evening Larry and Ellen are fantastic and their act is one of a kind- my advice- check them out!

impossibly lonely by Arlan Feiles is the stand-out track on this cd (and no, i'm not a friend - i've never heard him before).
the other songs are rather generic, as far as folky singer/songrwiter guitar sets are concerned.
good cd!
great cause!!
buy it!!!
