Born to be mild? Amos Lee's sophomore effort for Blue Note follows firmly in the gentle guitar strums of his well-received 2005 debut and opening slots for Norah Jones and Bob Dylan. Little has changed the second time around, which will come as a relief to those enthralled by his first release. He remains a sensitive sort, mixing his insightful, reflective lyrics with lovely, unforced melodies played by backing musicians that stay on low boil. These tunes go down as smoothly as hot chocolate on a cold day, yet Lee brings an unassuming sincerity to the proceedings with his cozy, amiable voice. Comparisons to Bill Withers and James Taylor are accurate if inevitable, but when the gospel organ quivers into "Skipping Stone," it's clear Lee isn't stuck in a folk-pop rut.

Lee's approach is similar to the way Keb' Mo' treats the blues--he injects his cushy personality into an established genre, writes good if somewhat casual songs, and doesn't push the envelope too far. The final third of the album is perhaps too mellow, and a few midtempo tracks could have perked things up. But adult-contemporary fans looking for dependable Sunday morning music will welcome Supply and Demand as a quality follow-up brimming with subtle soul, style, and sophistication. --Hal Horowitz

5 out of 5 stars The BEST in a long time   May 24, 2008
M. momic (Hamilton, Ontario)
I would give this CD more then 5 stars if I could. It is the second cd by Amos Lee that I have purchased so far, after hearing how good the first one was, and I am sure that I will continue to by a lifelong fan.

Heard him perform on Austin City Limits...was not disappointed when I ordered the CD. It is wonderful music from a talented songwriter & performer. Have shared it with friends & family & they are impressed as well.


5 out of 5 stars Well done Amos Lee!   April 29, 2008
Shyam Sundar (Seattle, WA USA)
I think Amos Lee is one of the most talented musicians that I have come across in the recent past. He got this album after listening to "Arms of a woman" from the Last Kiss soundtrack. This album is packed with great songs and was very impressed with his vocal talent. Overall a great album!

I saw him on Austin City Limits, and couldn't wait to get his CD. And now I have all of them.
A great CD!

S Craine (Charleston SC)
This is one of Amos Lee's best CD's. Its mellow, with a few pick me up songs included. I listened to this when I was on maternity leave and fell in love with this guy's voice. A true talent.
