"SONGS ARE DRIVEN BY CARLETON'S FINE GUITAR WORK
AND SINGING...IT'S EASY TO LAUGH AT SOME OF THE ROCK AND ROLL BANDS MAKING
HITS THESE DAYS, BUT HEARING ROOTSY ROCK DONE THIS WELL SHOULD MAKE YOU
FEEL A LITTLE BETTER."
- Vintage Guitar Magazine -
"DUANE CARLETON'S 'ONCE LOST, THEN TORN DOWN'
STANDS OUT AS AN OASIS OF HIGHLY LISTENABLE MUSIC IN A DESERT OF
CREATIVITY. THIS SINGER-SONGWRITER HAS SOMETHING TO SAY...CARLETON'S MUSIC
SHOWS KEEN INSIGHTS INTO THE MALAISE OF AMERICAN RURAL LIFE...(HIS) LYRICS
HERE ARE WELL THOUGHT OUT AND POTENT. CARLETON HAS A SHARP EYE FOR THE WAY
PEOPLE IN RURAL AMERICA LIVE."
- The Times Argus - "WELL-CRAFTED,
RADIO FRIENDLY TUNES. DISARMINGLY BEAUTIFUL LYRICS ARE PAR FOR THE COURSE
ON THIS CD. WHAT REALLY MAKES THE ALBUM STAND OUT IS CARLETON'S HONEST AND
SKILLFUL SONGWRITING. HE'S GOT A KEEN ABILITY TO CREATE SONGS THAT LINGER
IN YOUR MEMORY LONG AFTER THE DISC HAS STOPPED SPINNING. AND THAT'S WHAT
MAKES 'ONCE LOST, THEN TORN DOWN' MORE ENJOYABLE WITH EACH LISTEN."
- Seven Days -
"CARLETON SINGS LIKE A YOUNG BOB SEGER...HE
WRITES CATCHY POP SONGS...'CHASING AFTER
THE STARS' IS A PROFESSIONAL SOUNDING RECORDING THAT COULD HAVE COME FROM
NASHVILLE AS EASILY AS RUTLAND COUNTY"
- Seven Days - "TORRID
GUITAR WORK...AND OVER THE TOP VOCALS...GOOD STUFF!"
- Metronome Magazine -
"ORIGINAL
SOUND AND LYRICS...EXPLOSIVE GUITAR...MATCHED WITH CATCHY LYRICS...IT'S
NICE TO HEAR SOMETHING REAL AND WELL COMPOSED."
- The Vermont Review -
"THAT ALL-AMERICAN ROCK SOUND THAT COULD BE
COMPARED TO THE LIKES OF JOHN MELLENCAMP OR BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN."
- The Rutland Herald -
"DUANE'S SONGS ROCK AND SWAY WITH AN OLD COUNTRY
AND MODERN COUNTRY SENSIBILITY AND SPAN DEEPLY PERSONAL ROOTS ROCK AND
ALTERNATIVE MUSIC."
- The Folk Times -
