More great reviews on the new Thomas Denver Jonsson album BARELY TOUCHING IT.

Here's some quotes from Dennis Cook on
www.ebong.org (US):


"Yet, he has released two albums that carry the same promising vibe as Bob Dylan's early releases, where you know they're very good but what really twists your ear is the sense of what's ahead, the possible masterpieces lurking in his subconscious. One almost hesitates to mention it for fear of spooking the poor lad but a recent back-to-back listen of the new Dylan Bootleg Series release, No Direction Home, and Jonsson's debut only further cemented the impression for this writer."

//

"The diamond hiding below his ribs is a song cycle you can stack up next to Palace's Viva Last Blues, Neil's After The Gold Rush and Gillian Welch's Time (The Revelator). There's a tenderness that's palpable but the softness is balanced by a clear-eyed forthrightness that makes his declarations of love all the more substantive. Love grounded in truth, even when painful, has much richer soil to thrive in."
