- For those of you who don't know McNevin, he is one of the most
- promising new singer/songwriters around. An English publication,
- the Kerrville Kronicle, called his debut tape, _Secondhand Story_,
- one of the finest sets of original material the nineties will see.
- There's also a review in the Dec/Jan issue of Dirty Linen.
-
- If I'm not mistaken, the Dirty Linen review, which I haven't seen,
- is by Andrew Calhoun. In any case, Andrew has written a review,
- which concludes:
- Two songs here, "November 4th" and "25 and Out of Room" are
- appealing but immature. The other nine approach perfection.
- There is a wealth of secret meaning in these lyrics. Pay
- close attention. This is the work of a master.
- Two of Michael's songs will be on a compilation CD that Andrew
- is releasing shortly (if not already) called _American Impressionist
- Songwriters_.
