I'm a huge fan of seeasick & his rough 'edgy' way of playing! He's like the 'Jimmy Hendrix' of the 1 String!(although this Album doesn't come close to his full potential - nor does it have an example of his 'let fly' attitude with a 1 string on it!). This Album sounds a lot crisper(a better sound quality) than his Doghouse Music Album. ...Though he does talk a good bit on this Album (for over 13 minutes of the last track alone!)..which isn't to everybodies taste, & I'm sure this track would be skipped past by a lot of people!..But for an intro to Seasicks type of music & playing style - This Album is fantastic! The talking aside...I'm sure this Album will prove to be extremely popular with both seasicks' fans & lovers of that edgy blues, that Steve is well on his way to becoming the next great exponent of! A fantastic intro to his music, better recorded sound than his other albums, (closer to the crispness of his Jools Holland debut!) & an absolute MUST for Steves' bigger fanbase! 8 outta 10...(would consider 9 or even 10 outta 10, - only I know that quite a lot of people are put of by almost 15 minutes of a rambling story through out this Album!!....I personaly do like that..gives some feeling of Genuine attempt to communicate to his fans, I feel ....but, I don't think most other people would enjoy that part!) ALSO I'D ADVISE TO SHOP AROUND ON E-BAY....SOME SELLERS ARE ASKING AN EXTORTONATE AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR THIS ALBUM!!! BUT DO WHAT I DID & LOOK AROUND - YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO PICK IT UP FOR WELL UNDER A TENNER!!(incl.P+P!!)Read full review

Wow how to start this review is hard i heard this guy on one of the music channels quite a while back you know the way it is tune comes on and the song or the name of the artist sticks in your head . POW seasick steve got me straight away how do they do this it still took me nearly 6 months to buy this album but every time, i came on line went to the record store i thought about it then when i'd got the pennies i did . Best money i spent in ages great raw sound fantastic vocals and lyrics this really is foot stamping beer chugging or just plain old good time music at its best , so begging everyone that reads this review go get this album this guy is down to earth and making honest fantastic music give him a try , many thanks for reading this.
Seasick steve, istarted out with nothing is a studio album but as with all the performances by steve you feel that he is on the sofa with you, it is personal, intimate and friendly. The songs are obviously well produced and they lose a little bit of his worldliness compared to seeing him live. All the same an excellent album, good content and a narrator of life that could be listened to for a long time, lets hope he puts more of his lifes adventures on cd and shares them with the world. This is a moan that sings about his own experiences and you know it, sometimes humurous sometimes sad but always aurally acceptable.
