For his third full-length on Alligator Records, Lindell stays true to the recipe that made him a regional star with a burgeoning national profile in the late '00s: a no-frills, good-timing mix of classic soul, honky-tonk, and New Orleans funk seemlessly centered on his huskily blue-eyed-soul vocals, which sound at times like a cross between the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson and a young Van Morrison. Every track on GULF COAST HIGHWAY reimagines the latter's MOONDANCE as played by Dr. John and the Meters. Whether on his own compositions (like lead-off "If Love Can't Find A Way") or his cover choices (such as Delbert McClinton's "Here Come the Blues Again") that reveal a deep musical curiosity, Lindell pulls off the trick of making the well-worn sound fresh.
Audio Mixer: Drew Vonderhaar.Down Beat (p.67) - "[I]t's his distinctive vocal approach, a sort of simmering soul colored by an assortment of Gulf Coast blues and country influences, that is both the music's main ingredient and its primary attraction."
Dirty Linen (p.52) - "Lindell closes the proceedings with an infectiously funky, keyboard-driven/cowbell-bangin' instrumental..." Eric Lindell Gulf Coast Highway Songs Gulf Coast Highway Review

After shocking longtime fans with her slickly produced, radio-ready self-titled album, singer/songwriter Liz Phair took a tiny step back towards her indie-rock roots on 2005's SOMEBODY'S MIRACLE, bringing a few new younger fans along with her. Phair sounds a bit more like her 1990s persona here, with her vocals charmingly off-key at times. However, anyone expecting a grand return to EXILE IN GUYVILLE will be sorely disappointed; although MIRACLE has less of a blindingly bright pop sheen than its immediate predecessor, Phair stays the mainstream course by crafting another set of infectiously catchy, teen-friendly anthems. In fact, almost every tune on MIRACLE--from the soaring title track to the spare, melancholy "Table for One"--expertly taps into feelings of adolescent yearning and frustration. While it's unlikely that SOMEBODY'S MIRACLE will win back very many older fans, Phair seems perfectly happy with her new audience, and that shows on every track of this headstrong, confident record.
Liz Phair alienated a large portion of her audience with her 2003 extreme pop makeover, where she didn't just go pop, she went teen pop, collaborating with the Matrix and winding up sounding something like Avril Lavigne's aunt. It wasn't exactly what fans raised on Exile in Guyville either wanted or expected and they were vocal in their displeasure, yet Phair made it very clear in her supporting press for the album that she didn't care that they were upset: she was no longer the woman who made Exile, and had no interest in trying to write or sound that way anymore, which was pretty evident from the album at hand. She wanted to cash in that indie cred and become a star, and Liz Phair did indeed bring her success, including her first Top 40 hit with "Why Can't I?," which tended to diminish the sniping of her critics, even if it didn't necessarily dismiss their criticisms. Most of the criticisms were focused on the Matrix-fueled pop singles, since they were flashy, ostentatious examples of how Phair wanted to play on a bigger field, but apart from those singles, Liz Phair concentrated on tasteful, well-polished, sturdy adult alternative pop that was not dissimilar to work by such peers as Michael Penn ...
