Free Music Notes for The Essential Shawn Mullins
Free Music Review: Shawn Mullins - Decent American Singer Songwriter
Hit: 3 Stars
Mullins is best known for his huge hit single "Lullaby" from the late 90's. That was pretty much the only thing I knew of him until I saw him open for the Indigo Girls a few years ago. I was impressed enough with his show to go out and pick up this compilation album. I don't own any of his studio albums, so I don't know how representative this is, but it seems to be a decent compilation. Mullins is a singer / songwriter who seem to specialize in acoustic oriented songs in the tradition of many who have come before him. His lyrics don't blow me away, but are decent enough. Overall the album is a pleasant listen and Mullins is an enjoyable writer. The album contains two versions of his bit hit Lullaby, the original single along with an acoustic version. There is also a cool duet of Border Song with Elton John.Free Music Review: A good compilation
Hit: 4 Stars
But I preferred Soul's Core to The Essential Shawn Mullins. I guess it depends on your musical taste as he really showcases some of his other abilities with this one but I prefer the more soulful, rocky vibe to Soul's Core.Free Music Review: A must have in your collection
Hit: 4 Stars
This is a great CD. There are at least 7 or 8 really good songs on this one and the rest are still pretty good.Free Music Review: Essential for Shawn's fans, old and new!
Hit: 5 Stars
I recently discovered Shawn Mullins on Amazon.com, and I am so glad I did. I first fell in love with his voice, and then his music. After purchasing Soul's Core and loving it, I decided to get The Essential Shawn Mullins.
This is a nice, varied collection of Shawn's music. There are songs that make you want to get up and dance, such as "Shimmer" and "Everywhere I Go", and then there are the beautiful, reflective songs, such as "Joy Terrell Brown" and "Lonesome, I know you too well". Having just lost a very good friend to cancer, "Joy" really resonated with me.
I was thrilled to hear the collaboration with Elton John, "Border Song," on this CD. I think the two of them sound great together.
I highly recommend this CD for Shawn Mullins fans, both old and new. I also feel if you have never heard him before, this is a great way to begin.

From the OBJECTIVE reviewer...a solid collection even if it is missing some tracks I would call essential.
