  • I Bought this CD because I was looking for something a little different, yet not off the wall. I was not disappointed. First cut, "Cigarettes and Chocolate Milk" is easily the strongest, as evidenced by the re-mix version on the last cut (same, but with drum machine added). Music is mainly piano based, but makes excellent use of strings and a variety of other instruments. Although it contains a few snoozers ("Evil Angel", & "In A Graveyard") this CD contains some of the most creative songwriting I've heard in a long time. It's reflective, but also fun and upbeat at the same time.
