Press Reviews
If I were to combine NEIL YOUNG'S chunkiness with TOM VERLAINE'S oddball-pop vocal stylizing I might get something like Mr. Harrington. His wise-guy lyrics, use of accents and well developed song writing talents make me enjoy his music over and over.
-- Don Campau (KKUP FM, Cupertino, Calif.) Feb. 1999
Harrington is a strong songwriter... [and] clever, dry lyricist.
Credit to him for designing his own tongue-in-cheek CD packaging and for successfully self-producing his work.
-- Chart. June 1993 |
