Free Music Review: The Best Singer/Songwriter You've Never Heard Of
Hit: 5 Stars

If you love well-crafted melodic pop songs with simple, down-to-earth lyrics, warm vocals and beautiful harmonies, buy this CD! Most of the songs featured on this compilation were done while Emitt was in his teens or early twenties. The original one-man-band of pop, he wrote all the songs, played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts - with amazing results! For those familiar with the talents of Emitt Rhodes and/or his pre-solo career group, The Merry-Go-Round, this is the best compilation of his work out there, although I would have preferred a complete anthology of all his songs (Rhino? Sundazed? Are you listening?) His songs have held up well over the years, and it's a shame that someone with this caliber of talent never achieved commercial or financial success. Although Emitt has experienced some hard times in recent years, I've heard that he is ready to record again. We can only hope!!!
Postscript 7/03: Even though Japanese remasters of all three of Emitt's Dunhill album releases plus his A&M solo album are readily available, this CD is still worth purchasing, if only for the inclusion of the rare 1972 antiwar single "Tame The Lion" (only available otherwise on a 45 single) and the unreleased 1980 track "Isn't It So". I just read today on the official Emitt Rhodes website...that a "well-known indie label is very interested in putting out a new album of his music"(!!!)
