Free Music Review: Amos Lee from a new fan
Hit: 4 Stars
This was my first Amos Lee purchase and I really like all the songs! Then I had the chance to see him in person and that just made it even better. He is a truly great talent.Free Music Review: Amos Lee's latest release.....

Well, I went to the Amos Lee Show last night with my wife, here in Philadelphia and felt compelled to write a review of Last Days at the Lodge.
There are many gems on this LP and for the most part, singer songwriter fans will be happy with the purchase. "Listen" starts the LP out, giving fans what they know and love about Amos: smart, caring lyrics, tight vocals and a nice rhythmic jam. "What's Been Going On", another track with much airplay, will have you hitting the repeat button on your ipod over and over as well!
However, I need to mention there seems to be a few filler songs here too. Amos seems to have tried the Maxwell falsetto-RB-thing with songs like "Baby I want You." And although I applaud him for mixing it up, it just doesn't play up to his strengths as a singer. As with many singer songwriters, the record executives seem to push them for more material `while they're hot', often before they're ready (this I feel is the case also with Ray Lamontagne latest LP). Sometimes, it take years for a really good song to brew and that is why, first time fans would be happier with the LP Supply and Demand. Long time fans and music lover looking for something a little different will still enjoy Last Days at the Lodge. Oh and also, It is an absolute must to see Amos Lee live!

On his new album Last Days at the Lodge, Amos Lee plays it all close to the chest. The melodies sound familiar, the lyrics sound familiar, and it all sounds like Lee is only half-interested in the songs he's singing. Many of the songs just sound tired and old hat. There are some exceptions, and his voice is still magnificent. I personally liked the songs Won't Let Me Go, and Kid, which is simple but inspiring. Overall, however, the album left me wanting more and missing his previous album, Supply and Demand.Free Music Review: can't all be winners

While I am a big fan of Amos Lee's first two cds, this one is not up to that standard. There are some good songs on here such as "listen" and the rerecording of an older Amos song called "jails and bombs". However, there is also a lot of bad stuff on here, such as "won't let me go", this sounds like a bad attempt at an R&B song. This is very unusual for Amos and sounds very awkward, I am still a fan of his but I would definatly recommend his other cds before this one.Free Music Review: new Amos Lee album

This album has a few good songs. It's different than his previous albums and not as good in my opinion. I'm not into some of the R&B stuff. It's slightly Al Green though which is pretty good.
