Musically, Halter and his band are pretty solid as well. They certainly have a clean sound and each musician is pretty good at what he does.

If you sense a "but" coming, you're right. I listened to this three times before I sat down to write this review and I couldn't quite place what I thought was missing. Finally, I realized it. This album is all about having love, losing love, and subtle things about relationships (like a blue dress) that really make them tick. So, what's wrong with an album about love? Frankly, there is nothing wrong with it. I mean, Ernie Halter certainly isn't the first artist to write about love. But here's the thing. It seems to me that Halter plays that particular theme very safely. I guess that's the trick. If you are going to write songs about something as universal as love, it's not easy to explore new ground, or at least give a new perspective.
