Lewis

Did anyone else follow the Deep Elm Records roster circa 2002? Deep Elm Records was my blood. All I wanted to do when I got older (because of the bands on their catalog) was tour in a dingy, rusted out van. Playing shows to 20 people at a time, but still going balls to the wall with intensity. That is what Deep Elm was to me. It was bands who seemed not to care about anything other than making music that pleased them, and only them. It was as if no one but themselves existed. They didn't care if you liked their music, just let them sleep on your floor. Lewis was my addiction. The song "Feet on the Ground" blew me away (and still does). It is packed with everything that melow rock SHOULD have! It is without a doubt, one of maybe 10 songs total that have moved me the way it does and has. This summer I was on tour with a Deep Elm Records band, and was able to grab the very last Lewis record in print. Before that, all I had was LastFM to hear it. Having this CD has only progressed my obsession with what Lewis is. They are emotional rock and roll done very well.
