Review Comments: Yes, this CD is really this good. Laswell has a great voice and great musical intuition. I've really enjoyed listening to this CD over and over again. Keep in mind this is a CD where all the tracks are good, not just one or two.

Can't get these songs outta my mind

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I had not heard of Greg Laswell until last Thursday when I was in a Barnes and Noble store in Seattle and they were playing this album. I was so caught by it I asked what it was; they said, "oh, it's Greg Laswell and he will be doing a live concert in an hour." I just had to stay. It was wonderful. At the moment, the song "The One I Love" is my favorite, but I'm hooked. The melodies and lyrical way Greg sings has captured my attention and I'll be listening to him for a long time to come.

Expressive and compelling: piano, guitar, Laswell's voice

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: This CD improves with repeated listening. Several pieces tend to begin quiety then increase to a larger sound. I like it better every time I play it. The pieces definitely pick up towards the end, from track 7 -10 particularly. Singer/songwriter Laswell plays piano, acoustic and electric guitar, harmonium, bells, organ and bass -- variety of talents, huh?

Tracks:
1 -- It's been a year: mellow acoustic guitar 7/10
2 -- That it moves: has a radio play sound, many instruments with some sweeping melodies 8/10
3 -- The one I love: Reflective lyrics with slow, driving melody 8/10
4 -- Comes and goes: gentle acoustic guitar, piano mixed in, love the lyrics (this one's for the lonely/the ones that seek and find/only to be let down/time after time/this one's for the torn down/the experts at the fall/common friends get up now/you're not alone at all...)Molly Jenson accompanies Greg's yearning tenor in a soulful mix 9/10
5 -- How the day sounds: syncopated piano chords opening, has a ColdPlay sound to it 8/10
6 -- Sweet Dream: some strings accompany his voice, gentle piece, quite short 8/10
7 -- Days go on: faster, driving rhythms, hypnotic song 9/10
8 -- I'd be lying: one of the longer pieces at 4:45, swells to a haunting chorus 9/10
9 -- Farewell: piano, guitar, banjo w/background Molly Jenson 9/10
10 -- Not out: my favorite!! soothing lyrics and music to start then at 2:34 mark builds into a fine, sexy sound 10/10
11 -- And then you: melancholy, simple guitar with piano 8/10
12 -- (hidden track)That it moves: acoustic version 7/10

If these tracks sound vaguely familiar it may be because some of Greg's music is on tv soundtracks such as Grey's Anatomy and One Tree Hill. Many of the songs have an intimate, brooding quality that indie rock enthusiasts will enjoy.

I'd Be Lying

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Greg Laswell has made my days brighter and more brilliant. He is every kind of good any one has claimed him to be and then some. Three Flights has proven to be a collection of music that music should be. Each track sparkles like the gem it is. Greg knows how to give the entire package, gifting us with his accessible and smart lyrics and melodies. Unpretentious and endearing. Inspiring and Refreshing. Brooding and sweet. His spring ep release of "How the Day Sounds" EP was all too exciting, and Three Flights From Alto Nido is more than just a bonus. I can't even describe how unprepared I was for "I'd Be Lying." And I'd be lying if I told you you this album isn't magical. The same goes for hearing his music live. A witty, gentle, soulful man. Obviously, I'm a huge fan of honest music. But, of all the music I'm so fortunate to experience, Greg's is at the top. A gift! Happy listening and living.

Greg Laswell Is Everything I Love About Music!

Review Comments: Greg Laswell is really everything I love about music. He is original, his songs are amazing, and they sound pure and brand new. I love the sound he has and his voice is great. All these songs showcase his talent and originality. I have been looking out for new music from him for a while now and I have to say that he has been getting better with time. This cd is proof that he has what it takes to make an impression. Buy it now and immediately enjoy the fresh sound of Greg Laswelll. :)

If you don't believe me, just listen to "How The Day Sounds." It is beautiful and the sound he has is amazing.
