I used to kinda smirk when my roomate put this cd in, then something started to happen. Soon I started to really listen, it opened my mind, I think maybe the first song must of brought me down a little. I found out this if the kinda mood music a person needs to have around, "an esential album". I bought the second album a few years later, I love it, but Shame, difently has a different, unique kinda feel. Most of the songs on here are mesmorizing, very groovy, and quite possibly some of the best music that you never heard on the radio.
