Free Music Review: Discovering Thompson-like hitting the mother lode
Hit: 4 Stars
If this alt-country artist is new to you like he was to me, you'd better put all expectations aside. He'll exceed them. If you could put a sound to sincerity, this would be it. With great guitar work and a confident voice, each song is anchored by superb back up, especially fiddle and driving percussion that seem to bring these melodies home. Lose yourself in lyrics that tell all our stories: rural or urban, a common angst. Best cuts are easily Ol' #7, an ode to a great locomotive [...]and Riptide, pure poetry wrought out of one man's pain. You'll hear the best rendition ever of Utah Philip's Rocks, Salt and Nails and you'll clasp your hands in grateful thanks with Further On, a pure Appalachian sound that's almost hymnal. I'm a convert--I accept his truth, full of grace. Indeed, there may be a better place further on--but for now, listen to Thompson and dig being right here. It doesn't get better than this.

Further On Poster
The new 'Further On takes Thompson's artistry to a whole new level. Forged on the road and carved from hard-lived experience, the album, like the artist himself, is naturally resistant to pigeonholes. Call it country, call it roots music, call it Americana; in the end it's the sound of Randy Thompson, raw and real. It's the sound of an artist who knows where he comes from and where he stands. It's the sound of the Virginia hills, of war and peace and love and fear. Further On is the sad, simple, beautiful sound of the truth.Country Music CDs
