into the major league of contemporary songwriters. He has songs that deal with
a wide spectrum of emotions, everything done with great musical finesse; Perfect!" —Hansjoerg
Malonek - Radio ISW, Germany, 4/20/05
["From The Dirt" is]
a slice of life meditation, an uplifting parable for our times, it is 4:41 of
near-perfection. [It] hits the mark with the force of a jacked-up linebacker on
speed. —Jeremy Searle, Americana UK, 7/21/05
"Urban
poetry set to good music—the lyrics are intelligent and sensitive, the imagery
is delightful, the arrangements are subtle and intensely satisfying, the musicianship
is honest, unadorned quality and it's great to listen to. This collection will
become friends for the quiet hours—you can't ask much more of a CD." —Jan
Nary, Publicist & Journalist, National Folk Festival, Australia, 7/7/05
"From
the Dirt, [is] a tight collection of songs about love and loss and life on the
road. [David Morreale] manages to capture the lure of the open road and the loneliness
that can come far from home. Morreale is a great storyteller. This album is perfect
for a nice long stretch of open road—or, for that matter, for any quiet
moment when wanderlust strikes." —Peter Robinett - Chicago Maroon,
6/3/05
"David Morreale has the earthy, masculine aura of
a young Hemingway. Once you experience his music, (especially good live, where
his personality and his physical presence imprint his music on you) you see and
hear that he is, in fact, a keen observer of life. His music reflects an
introspection and yet a heady enthusiasm that is unique; lyrics and melodies steeped
with the sonic signatures of his life—of all life in it's sometimes gritty,
but often beautiful and precious moments." —Jane Nefores - Severndipity
House Concerts, 3/10/05
"David treated the full house to such
a broad range of music, showing off his fantastic talent at songwriting, poetry
and guitar playing. Add to that his own great storytelling and his sense humor...
And in case you think he's just a folk singer, what folk singer would do a jammin'
version of Play That Funky Music White Boy? David is such a fantastic and gracious
musician. It was an absolute pleasure to host him. Please get yourself on his
mailing list and go see him at one of his regular gigs." —Ryan
Simmons, House Concert Presenter, Concerts on Bonnie Branch
"The
'N-Sync' of the Washington D.C. folk scene! He's great!" —Rachel
Cross, Folksinger"Morreale's
observations, varied arrangements, and likable performances make the [From The
Dirt] a solid outing." —Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr., All Music Guide
"If
David could talk, he'd probably talk about David." —David Morreale
