Jeffrey Foucault-Miles From the Lightning

Wow, now this is one of the best CD's I've ever heard. To be honest it's so good, I kinda have a hard time describing what it sounds like to people. I guess it's sorta like Bruce Springsteen's "Nebraska" or Bob Dylan's "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan". When it comes to songwriting Foucault really blows this thing out of the park. His lyrics are dark, but very convincing. On guitar he plays in a sorta folk-blues style, but for the most part pretty simple stuff(nothing more is needed). His melodies fit the lyrics so well, and they have that old gospel/blues feel. His voice is very much like Kelly joe Phelps....who is also great if you haven't heard him yet. I'm dissapointed that this album isn't more popular, his record label doesn't seem to do much promo. So check out his stuff, and buy all of his albums, you won't be dissapointed-
