Customer Reviews
It's nice, but it's all been done before 
2008-09-23
On his new album Last Days at the Lodge, Amos Lee plays it all close to the chest. The melodies sound familiar, the lyrics sound familiar, and it all sounds like Lee is only half-interested in the songs he's singing. Many of the songs just sound tired and old hat. There are some exceptions, and his voice is still magnificent. I personally liked the songs Won't Let Me Go, and Kid, which is simple but inspiring. Overall, however, the album left me wanting more and missing his previous album, Supply and Demand.
Agreed... good, but not his best. 2008-09-14
This is a decent album. Especially after seeing him perform most of these songs live. However it falls a little short of his first two releases in that it just doesn't have the same vibe. After I saw him live performing many of the songs off this CD, I went out and got this record asap only to be a little bummed out in that it was much different that the live versions. I really appreciate Amos and his ability to transform a song to fit the mood of his audience in a live performance. In this case, I just wish he would have put that same vibe into the recorded version. But like I said, this is still a good record as you really can't miss with Amos. His vocals alone are worth the money and his amazing songwriting and composition are like getting a free bonus.
My Best New Artist 
2008-08-31
It's been a long time since I've really let a new artist into my orbit, and I know Amos Lee is not exactly new, but I think he's amazing. He blends some street-funk sensibilities with folk-pop-rock, and I listen to Last Days at the Lodge over and over. The lyrics are intelligent, his voice is warm and inviting, even reminding me of Al Green on songs like "I Wanna Know". I highly recommend this album, and all of Amos Lee's work.

Last Days at the Lodge is a wonderful disc, with songs of all variety plus the soulful, memorable voice of Amos Lee and his beautiful lyrics.
Still getting Better 2008-08-26
First saw this guy on a TV programme "Live from Abbey Road" singing Southern Girl, loved it, just like the way he puts it out. Not going to itemise each track, but just have to say that with each album he gets better & better. This album has a slightly different feel, & is possibley more of a listener.
great CD 2008-08-25
Last Days at the Lodge is Lee’s third record, following his first two critically-acclaimed and tremendously successful records, Supply and Demand (2006) and his 2005 self-titled debut. This 2008 record is produced by Don Was, and features Lee on guitars, Doyle Bramhall, Jr. (Eric Clapton) on guitar, Spooner Oldham (Neil Young, Aretha Franklin) on keys, Pino Palladino (The Who, D’Angelo) on bass, and James Gadson (Bill Withers) on drums, along with many others. 11 tracks.
Good, but not his best 2008-08-17
Amos Lee is a great musician/song writer, and he really shows it on one track of this CD. "Street Corner Preacher" is some of his best work and by itself is worth the price of the CD. The rest of the album is mediocre, however, so I would characterize this as a 3.5 star effort.
amos lee- last days at the lodge 2008-08-08
amos lee's new cd is not what i expected, but... wow!!! upon first listen, i liked it (it's amos lee- how could i NOT like it. he's awesome!), but didn't love it. however, as i continued to listen, it started growing on me... a lot! it has now been over a month since i got it and it has not been taken out of the cd player. it is a different amos lee, but it is still amos lee. and he blows my mind everytime i hear him. this is a definite must-have!
Love it! 2008-08-07
I am a new fan, having heard AL interviewed on NPR. It is guaranteed calm-you-down music. He has a wonderful voice. Right now the song that in my head is Won't Let You Go - in fact, the song won't let me go. Amos Lee is that rare artist who reminds you of others (Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye), but is undeniably himself. I am excited to hear the rest of his canon.
Amos Lee from a new fan 2008-07-30
This was my first Amos Lee purchase and I really like all the songs! Then I had the chance to see him in person and that just made it even better. He is a truly great talent.
