Free Music Notes for Mission Temple Fireworks StandFree Music Review: Not To be Missed, For One Night Only..... Hit: 5 StarsPaul Thorn's America of faith healers and tent revivals is there between the Wal-Marts, strip malls and McDonalds that seem to be everywhere in this country. Its a beautiful and ugly place, it's strengths are the stories of people who we don't often hear about (Sister Ruby, for example, is a real person, I don't know about the Mission Temple Fireworks Stand, but I hope it's real too) and a joyous rocking sound, which we need to hear more of.
From the UK,America often gives the impression that it really is nothing more than one big McDonald's. Paul Thorn is evidence of another America, more different, beautiful and humane. Kind of like Brendan Croker (go look him up).
Free Music Review: love it! Hit: 5 StarsFound Paul Thorn on XM radio and have been a fan ever since...bought Mission Temple Fire Works Stand and Long Way from Tupelo - both CDs are awesome!!!
Free Music Review: Ain't Nothing Like A Fireworks stand revival in the South! Hit: 5 StarsI have just recently discovered Paul Thorn's music. On this cd he truly captures how it feels to be in and from the south. You can feel the humidity and hear the crickets, smell the sweat at an old time camp meeting, but this album is not about religon it is about truth and determination. There is not a bad cut on this album, from Everyone Looks Good At The Starting Line to I'm A Lucky Man. The song Mission Temple Fireworks Stand, makes you want to believe even if you are determined not to. I like Paul Thorn was a boxer and no matter how good you are at some point truth will win out over determination.
Free Music Review: mission temple fireworks stand Hit: 5 StarsI've been a huge fan of Paul Thorn for about 6 years. Bought this cd as a gift for someone who had heard one of his songs and asked me to recommend one of his albums. Just great songwriting. A true artist and storyteller, and a great band to see live!
