Bob is Bob
After hearing this album I bought everything this guy does. . he's nothing less than an original Texas musical genius.


Not to be missed!
Lonelyland is one fine CD and it is played constantly. Stumbled upon Bob's music recently and was astounded by the quality and diversity. Do yourself a favor and track down the "Texas" version with three bonus tracks. The over 10 minute "King Of The World" is absolutely amazing (and available to download at his web site for a nominal charge). Other favorites on the CD are Tokyo and Oklahoma, and the atmospheric "Grave of Senior Corizo" (bonus). You can't go wrong with this CD and will be following up with other Bob music. Particularly good are the CDs "Songs Sung and Played On Guitar At The Same Time", and "Underneath The Onion Trees" with rock/jazz guitarist Mitch Watkins.


Bob Schneider is the boss!
The concert was excellent and so is the CD. Just went to Bob Schneider concert last night in Houston, and picked up this CD. It is certainly CONVENIENT to get it here online, though! Order the CD here. . . . Listen to the CD then go see him live on stage, what a show. The crowd didn't ever want the show to end. He is magnetic and charismatic and his talents on the guitar and vocals are unbelievable! A true Texas treasure! Now I am looking for his other music Taratula and Batman, hopefully they will be available on amazon soon.


Best of Austin
Lonelyland is an excellent CD and shouldn't be overlooked by anyone. Bob is easliy the best Austin artist around right now. While I am also a big fan of his other projects (the Scabs and the Ugly Americans) I think this album is a big step forward in his maturation as an artist. From the slow ballads to the funky brass of the Groove Line Horns, this CD has it all. Honestly, though, if you really want to appreciate this music, you MUST see this band play live.


A man that can do it all
This album is a taste of the kind of roller coaster he can take you on. Bob Schneider may not have the name of a rock star, but he's got the goods. . . from Metal & Steel to Tokyo, 2002 to Oklahoma. All that have seen him live know the explosion of music within this man, and the albums hold up very well. I've turned a few people on to his music, and it doesn't take much. I STRONGLY suggest you check out the Scabs and Ugly Americans if you want to hear the full range of his music. Lonelyland is only the begining.
