Press Reviews
Eric Erskine has been around, literally, having done the singer/songwriter and top 40 bit on the West Coast as well as in these parts. The result is a nicely rounded songwriting touch and a super vocal presentation that occasionally rings of Dan Fogelberg in each of their upper registers.The songs are, in fact, so good that a publishing deal alone would make Erskine a household name. "The Ballad of Martha Brown" perfectly evokes the sad spectacle of people obviously growing old, then becoming expendable to even the people closest to them. I can hear any number of country or pop crooners, male or female, singing the ready-to-fall-in-love-again song "Isn't It Time" in front of some poignant video backdrop. Likewise "Innocent Eyes," written to a child about the grief sure to come.Really, it's rare in Maine, or anywhere else to find a guy like Erskine, whose voice is pure and whose songwriting is teh envy of those who don't have the knack. November is so good that we'll even allow that the total lack of credits might be due to the fact that our copy was a cassette dub. Remember the name.From Face Magazine, Vol 12, Issure 13 v.2 |
