"Some people are born to make great art and others are born to appreciate it. It is a kind of talent in itself, to be an audience, whether you are the spectator in the gallery or you are listening to the voice of the world's greatest soprano. Not everyone can be the artist. There have to be those who witness the art, who love and appreciate what they have been privileged to see." -- Ann Patchett in Bel Canto.

Re: Reviews of "The Day After Everything Changed"
Folks,
This review from Kevin O'Hare for masslive.com:
KarenZ
This review from Kevin O'Hare for masslive.com:
Ellis Paul, “The Day After Everything Changed” (Black Wolf Records). 4 stars.
One of the best writers to ever emerge out of the Boston music scene, Ellis Paul’s first new studio album in five years was built around a bond between the singer and his fans.
It was Paul’s loyal fan base that raised more than $100,000 to fund the recording project and their guy lived up to his end of the bargain, delivering one of the finest albums of his career.
The 15-song offering is filled with Paul’s exquisite craftsmanship, exemplified in the title track, one of five songs co-written with Sugarland’s Kristian Bush. Paul turns some of life’s most complicated situations into conversational beauty in the piano-backed track, which also features his soul-stirring vocals at their upper-octave finest.
Elsewhere, he covers miles of musical territory, rockin’ out with pure Americana on “The Lights of Vegas;” shaking up a lusty storm on the banjo-backed set-opener “Annalee;” eventually mixing a radically reworked but downright playful version of the Patsy Cline classic “Walking After Midnight,” with his own “Change;” before turning in a dreamlike soundscape of a duet with Bush on “Paper Dolls.”
This sure sounds like the best $100,000 a singer’s fans have spent in a long time.

That is without a doubt one of the best and most thorough reviews I have ever read. Talk about getting it right.

Re: Reviews of "The Day After Everything Changed"
Nice review of TDAEC in the Summer, 2010 issue of Sing Out! written by Rich Warren (of the Midnight Special radio show). I especially like the last sentence:
Amen to that!
The review is attached.

The Day After Everything Changed proves that while everything changes, Ellis Paul remains a preeminent song poet.
Amen to that!
