So this album came out in 2009, but comments here go back to 2006?  Apparently BillG can bend the space-time continuum as well as spin great tunes.

Saw him in Beijing at YuGong Yi Shan - one of the best performance in this venue. Just him alone and his incredible soft and intimate voice. Loved it.

Jose is a great songwritter with a wonderful voice, but the overdub on this album is distracting. It kills the beauty of his simplicity.

Jose Gonzalez? Isn't he the leftfielder for the Dodgers? If he'd give up that baseball gig and concentrate more on his music he might garner more than a 6.6 rating from all of us RP listeners.

I was driving home from DC a couple of months ago at night listening to this on my mp3 player. I had to take it off so I could focus on the road. The music was that haunting.

That said, this is a fine work of music and worthy of anyone's collection.

Like Elliot Smith (but thankfully alive).

Actually I think it's "I'll keep on whispering to Mothra."

Which makes sense, because you wouldn't want to yell.
