    • At first, Ray LaMontagne might strike you as just another breathy-voiced knockoff of folk/rock guitarists like John Mayer and Jack Johnson. But he's actually got a better voice than either, he tells better stories, and he's got an incredible sense of atmosphere. We'll see, in the coming years, if he's for real, but "Trouble" is an impressive first album. A singer-songwriter friend of mine originally pointed me to this disc (his words: "This album saved my life"), but it's kept me coming back.

      I particularly recommend the beautiful "Hold You in My Arms" and the slow shuffling "How Come."
