San Francisco, California: Lawrence Blatt’s debut album “Out of the Woodwork” is featured in the April issue of the New Age Reporter’s “Both Sides Now” column. This well known feature contains reviews by renowned New Age music writers Bill Binkelman and RJ Lannan. “What I liked about all of Lawrence's songs is that they have the feel or distinctive kind of sound of honest first takes. These songs are not remastered over and over again which could have made them lose their earthy feel. Out of the Woodwork is by far one of the best tracks on the recording. It is a song about discovery or perhaps that story of big things out of small packages applies. This album is highly recommended.” said Lannan in his review of the cd Binkelman added, “With thirteen instrumentals on Out of the Woodwork, you get more than your money's worth if you love a varied approach to acoustic guitar recordings. Blatt deserves credit for not just his talent and skill on his instrument (which are considerable) but also how he managed to record an album as diverse as this one while infusing it with a single "voice" uniquely his. One of the more interesting guitar releases I've heard in the last year or so, the album gets "thumbs up" from me for both its originality and its overall artistry.” Both writers highly recommended the cd.
