Use great caution in his presence as we’ve already lost many to his beguiling pop powers. Daniels often employs a spare, direct attack. Hidden within his confident and smoothly vocalized lyrical musings are a bevy of hooks and pop trap-doors guaranteed to capture the imagination, and the heart. Songs such as the jazzy, bouncing “The Way We Get By” and the spooky, offbeat, rumbling “Paper Tiger” have already attracted a new secret army of adherents.
Daniels is constantly moving; he never seems to try the same stylistic technique twice. Considering his songwriting skills and his penchant to push his craft further with each record, we have no choice but to regard him as one of the underground’s most wanted. Intelligence reports have him at the Cat’s Cradle Saturday, April 12. Call 967-9053. —Chris Parker Use great caution in his presence as we've already lost many to his beguiling pop powers.
