I came to the Felice Brothers blind, but Oh! what a discovery. It could be tempting to pigeonhole them, focusing on the Dylanesque quality of the vocals, but this would be a mistake. The vocals are of a burr that seems to combine Guy Clarke and Levon Helm with a shot of Jack Daniels!! Now saying they sound like Dylan would not have conveyed that AND missed much more. The harmonies are almost theatrical in their feel, but the theatre in this instince is the Catskills not Carnegie Hall. There is for me a feel of ribald earthiness, where the excellent lyrics and music combine to produce a soundtrack to a way of life, or a feeling for life.
The opening Roll On Arte is haunting and just sets the scene, there is a languid yet sharp edge ... Read More:

The Felice Brothers are amazing. They have a very 'unpolished' sound, and it took me a few listens to truly appreciate this album - but now i'm playing it constantly. I hear something new every time I play it. I'm a fan of The Old Crow Medicine Show - the Felice Brothers have some similarities, in a slower more melancholy way, but I also think they're even better. There are also some vague Dylan similarities. My only criticism is that there isn't a lyrics sheet with the CD - as the lyrics and the stories the Felice Brothers tell are amazing. I haven't seen these guys in concert yet but it's at the very top of my wish list to do so.

Bought this album here from Amazon, and recieved it this afternoon. At first I didn't really get into it, it was good. But nothing that remarkable. Then I listened to it again. =O!
This really is some great stuff. Somewhat melancholic, it's sounds a bit like the mood of Neil Young's On The Beach, with a more dylanesque feel to it, and with lyrics that makes me think a lot of The Band. This is good, really great. It's epic. Most of the people used to the more commericial, polished stuff of today might think it sounds a bit strange. But this is raw, imperfect (like the thunder hitting the studio during the recording of Hey Hey Revolver), and paradoxally amazing.
So everyone that liked, for example (as I said above) Neil ... Read More:
