:: Release Notes:
::
:: Nine album's in and Joe's songwriting and general feel hasn't
:: lost a thing and if anything, has gained with each release.
::
:: Putting aside the blip that was 'Canyon Joe', his eighth
:: release, Joe's career has been hugely consistent with some of
:: superior songwriting I've heard in years. His gut-wrenching
:: howl on the more tense tracks is invigorating while his
:: gentle but rough voice is moving while at the same time
:: soothing and often in the case of Joe, tear-jerking. Tracks
:: such as 'Good Days', one of the major highlights of an album
:: that's full of them, are touching and deeply dark and it is
:: possible that this is Joe's darkest ballad to date. The
:: production of 'Take My Blanket And Go' has a more 'rusted'
:: feel and a more bleaker feel. That's not to say that it's
:: depressing, far from it. The opening 'San Jose' is a Purdy
:: chant classic, while 'White Picket Fence' is Joe at his
:: angriest. Through each of these songs, which I must say Joe
:: enphasises less on lyrics and more on instrumentation (not to
:: say the lyrics are excellent, because as ever they are), Joe
:: gives some of his best vocal performances to go along with
:: quite possibly his best set of songs.
