The reviews have been rolling in and below is just a sample of the good things people are saying:
The Globe - 8/5/06
Vance Gilbert "Angel Castles Covers" is the album Gilbert's fans have wanted him to make for years=2E He is among the most hilarious and explosive entertainers to ever hit the folk circuit (lately, he's been touring with George Carlin), which sometimes obscures what a terrific vocalist he is=2E But on this album it's all about the singing as he offers intimate, gorgeously realized reinventions of standards by Sam Cooke, Joni Mitchell, Shawn Colvin, Stevie Wonder, and Jimi Hendrix=2E Like the showstopper he is, the album is also full of bold surprises=2E In a hot-breathed duet with Lori McKenna, he even pumps new life into the Ashford and Simpson chestnut "Ain't Nothin' Like the Real Thing=2E"
All Music Guide:
ANGELS CASTLES COVERS
Review by Ronnie D=2E Lankford, Jr=2E=2E=2Ewhile Gilbert himself is bound to know that matching masters like Marvin Gaye is an unenviable, thankless task, he acquits himself well one of the exciting things about covering other artists' songs is that they can be reinterpreted in a new way for a new audience, and Gilbert's fans will find these interpretations a pleasing extension of his music=2E
Vintage Guitar magazine excerpt review:
So what exactly does Gilbert bring to the table besides wide musical tastes? Plenty=2E He has one of the most flexible voices you'll ever hear=2E He can do things with a familiar melody that would never succeed in less musically sophisticated hands=2E He also ranks as a top-flight guitar picker=2E His finger picking chops rival anything you'll hear from a studio pro=2E His guitar work on "Castles Made of Sand" is simply stellar=2E
Catch Vance at a live show near you and you could pick one up in person=2E
Hope you're enjoying what I think is starting to feel a little bit like fall=2E=2E=2E
