Press Reviews Not all soul music is of the Aretha variety. There's also the kind you hear from James Taylor, Tracy Chapman, Jackson Browne, Nina Simone, and Lucinda Williams. That's what John Joseph Nolis offers in words and music that heal the spirit and remind us that hope, trust, and love are possible. This CD features ten tender songs, half self-written, the others quite original interpretations of tunes by Tom Waits, Gretchen Peters, Melissa Etheridge, and Kim Carnes. -Jim Fouratt / The Advocate.
