Tomorrow the Green Grass

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

It's immediately accessible music, but it grows on the listener nonetheless.

Hard Stuff

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

Kramer is at his strongest when relating stories, as opposed to songs that philosophize in a general, more abstract way.

Greatest Hits

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

The '90s are overrepresented at the expense of the '70s, his most creative and appealing period.

Murder Love

​

Hanky Panky

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

A forceful album that is both rousing and bleak.

Spinning Coin

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

It's a fine piece of blues, but the entire package doesn't click as strongly as recent releases by other blues-smiths.

Ball-Hog or Tug Boat?

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

The variety of players and singers gives the album a dynamic eclecticism, and makes "Ball-Hog or Tub Boat?" the strongest release so far of '95.

​

Winnipeg, MB, Canada

Hard to believe after only three regular albums, but Colin James has a greatest hits album.
