Those of us who knew how brilliant a singer/songwriter he is from the first notes of his criminally neglected solo album "Looking for Jack" are grateful to the "Garden State" and "Scrubs" fans who have helped raise Colin's profile...it's just a bummer that it took so long for Colin to get a tenth of the recognition he deserves. So, if you like what you heard a the concert, I recommend "Transcendental Highway," "Topanga" and his latest album, "Are You Looking at Me?" if you want to delve into his best solo work. 731152@blogcritics.org Sun, 6 Jul 2008 18:24:56 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/06/30/195847.php#comment-731151 It has been so frustrating for fans who have kept up with his solo career--like me.

Their material is indeed iconic. So now I have something new to check out...Colin Hay's current material. Thanks! 730165@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Jul 2008 14:01:19 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/06/30/195847.php#comment-730150 Good to know about this artist. I've never heard much of Colin besides the soundtrack song. Thanks, Mrs. Culver, for the info. I have new music to check out! 730150@blogcritics.org Tue, 1 Jul 2008 13:23:14 EDT
