Eric Comstock: Bitter/Sweet

"One can't blame someone for being glum and even a little bit bitter when love becomes "an empty smoke dream" now just "Gone with the Wind." But Bitter/Sweet's flavors are more sweet than bitter, offering a balance of the sad and glad aspects of relationships. In his fourth solo album, singer Eric Comstock, who usually accompanies himself on piano, forsakes the keyboard to team up with guitarist Randy Napoleon as the sole, soulful musician. It's a rewarding partnership. The title song—sans the slash—is a melody by Billy Strayhorn once known as "Ballad for the Very Tired and Very Sad Lotus Eaters" that was fashioned with a literate lyric by Roger Schore, with Eric convincing in the singing of how perspective and experience can cast a chapter of love as a "Bittersweet" mix of feelings." -Rob Lester, Talkin' Broadway Sound Advice Reviews
