Product Description
Dave's songwriting & guitarplaying gifts the focus of this brilliantly understated solo debut, delivered with grace and conviction.

5 out of 5 stars A Quiet Gem.......2000-03-01

Strong songwriting and lovely melodic guitar work are the cornerstones of this spare but utterly rewarding recording. Schramm obviously learned from one of his influences, Miss Emily Dickinson, that economy of expression can actually heighten emotion. Buy this CD!

    1 out of 5 stars Just...no........2004-09-13

    I'm trying to understand and see the talent that other people seem to find in this group. As of now, I can't. This rendition of Photograph? Awful. I didn't know it was possible to screw up a song quite so badly. Even if it wasn't a Def Leppard song (Which, come on, you can't outdo Def Leppard), the vocals are just horrible. I would not recommend buying this single whatsoever. And (and I know I'm setting myself up here, lol) Don't rate this review "not helpful" just because you don't happen to agree with my opinion. If we all agreed on here, what would be the point of posting what we think? :)

    4 out of 5 stars Pretty good debut.......2004-08-08

    These siblings are very talented! Twin sisters Lauren and Dana and younger brother Michael put a new twist on a cool old song. I think it's hip that a bluegrass trio was influenced by a rock band and pays homage to them. I'll be checking out their full-length CD when it comes out for sure.

    3 out of 5 stars Write Your Own Music.......2004-07-15

    I give this song 3 Stars because I would feel bad giving Def Leppard's greatest song 1 or 2 stars. The band does a weak renditon of, quite possibly, my favorite song ever. The problem is in the fact that this song was meant to rock, not lull one to sleep. I kept my mouth shut when Mariah tried to ruin "Bringing on the Heartbreak," but this has gone too far. Write your own music you hillbilly losers. What are you? Rappers?

    5 out of 5 stars WOW this is good.......2004-06-21

    This single is amazing. This band is going to change country music!!! They are so talented and the harmonies are shockingly good. The bonus track "Hammer and Nails" is awesome. Malibu Storm is my favorite band!!! Can't wait for the album

    5 out of 5 stars WOW is this good.......2004-06-21

You've got to admire Jon Wahl's perseverance. The L.A.-based musician has been at it for years now, but he's never managed to shed the "critically acclaimed" tag and enjoy anything approaching the broader success he deserves. Since leaving the Pontiac Brothers in the mid-'80s, he's lent his multi-instrumental talents (sax, guitar, drums, harmonica, keyboards) to numerous acts, from the Bassholes, the Red Aunts, and Midget Handjob to Bad Religion, Slowrider, and Wayne Kramer. But, of course, his main gig was as frontman for Claw Hammer, a phenomenal live act whose mad punk hybrid of hard rock and blues didn't always fully translate to the studio. After two albums for Interscope, the band went on what now seems to be a permanent hiatus and Wahl set about recording his solo debut. Claw Hammer aficionados will remember Wahl as the frazzled, wailing presence at the center of fast 'n' loud songs that, while highly disciplined, frequently seemed only seconds away from chaos. Aside from the noisy guitar-fueled "Maybe," however, Sour Suite is less rock-oriented than much of his work with Claw Hammer. Written mostly while walking the streets of L.A., these songs find Wahl in a quieter, slightly more restrained mood. That's not to say that he forgoes the eccentric sensibility of his previous recordings; rather, his distinctive surreal vision is preserved and fleshed out in rootsy, off-kilter numbers that showcase, more than ever, his talent as a writer and performer.
