Thorn and Watt made a couple of albums with a cocktail-jazz backup and one with strings before trying a small unit for the intimate songs of their most accessible recording. The setting is perfect for such moving compositions as "Love Is Here Where I Live" and "Apron Strings." Start here, then go on to the rest of this remarkable group's catalog. ~ William Ruhlmann
Through a sea of changes they moved, from sparse indie folk to jazz, and with this album, they slotted into the classy pop niche. Very much a cosy 80s album for those that had weathered the new wave of the late 70s, EBTG still have the Habitat/Ikea image in their front-room. This is unnecessary carping because the songs are quite excellent, from the romantic innocence of "These Early Days" to the romantic experience of "I Always Was Your Girl." Thorn's voice is at last sounding fully in command and the choice of the late Danny Whitten's "I Don't Want To Talk About It" is inspired.

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Still great
Again, had this album years ago but lost it. Again it was great to hear these songs again. Also, very good arrangements on a so called 'pop' album.

Town By The Sea
Joe Mannix Town By The Sea CD  (2005)

Idlewild
CD $13.49
PRESS:* "A sweet folk-rock album...this is also one of the things that makes it stand out in our times of inane hubris" Time Out NY* "Joe Mannix imediately can be placed in a fine niche of performers such as Michael Penn and Neil Finn..." All Music Guide* "This is dark and deep Americana that shouldn't be missed... an exceptional talent to blend the accessibility of a gentle Pop style with the edgy and gutsy substance of Americana and folk..." CDBABY.com, front page pick* "There's a lot of Harry Nilson in the quirky lyrical choices, Dylan in the fullness of harmonica and guitar gustiness. The thing is, the heart of folk music is friendliness - that's folksiness. Mannix has that nailed, and it just makes you want to keep listening..." HOUR Weekly, Montreal------BIOJoe Mannix is a key figure in the New York City songwriter underground, hosting monthly showcases; building a cult reputation with raves from the NY Times, Washington Times and media / airplay in the UK, Italy, Canada, Spain, Japan, France and more. Joe is constantly touring and garnering airplay, fans and a reputation as a formidable live act either solo or with his trio ("with melody and muscle...the band and their leader held court from the get go" Amplifier).A Town By The Sea is Joe's second solo album (there were also two acclaimed CDs with his roots rock band, Mannix). Recorded in an old dark church in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, with the cream of that city's roots musicians - spearheaded by producers Glenn Marshall (a Daniel Lanois engineer) and Canadian roots pop icon Dave Rave (Teenage Head, The Shakers, and ex-Lanois studio guitarist). The result is a kind of sweet blend of Warren Zevon, Townes Van Zandt, Neal Young, Bruce Springsteen and David Gray; familiar and yet brand new at the same time, a comfortable warm wind of Americana blowin' down the cold winter streets of New York's East Village; like Phil Ochs fronting The Band in another place, another time.Joe ...
