Wow, what a refreshing album to hear, my favorite CD so far this year (well other then Fast Jacket-The Devil's Music). I'm really huge on acoustic music after hearing this, two thumbs up!!! For those that don't know, he did the song for that Sony commercial, and yes that commercial was awesome.

The infectious 'Veneer' encapsulates Jose's eclectic influences like Elliot Smith, Joy Division, Nick Drake, Will Oldham, Tim Buckley, and even a hint of Paul Simon. Using just his own dextroulsy finger-picked classical guitar and captivating voice, part Joao Gilberto, part Paul Simon, Jose's music is as econoical as it is seductive. - From CDNow.com

My favorite songs have to be Heartbeats, {Heh... I wonder if they found all 250,000 balls used in that commercial once they filmed it?!?} Crosses (I heard they used it in the O.R. series) and Slow Moves, though I like the entire album. THUMBS UP!!!! - Fri, 10 Mar 2006 3:42pm Edited: Fri, 10 Mar 2006 4:09pm
