Amos Lee, "Supply and Demand" (Blue Note Records)
No sophomore slump for Amos Lee.
Anyone who thought the singer-songwriter was simply the male version of Norah Jones, think again. While Jones has a scrumptious voice, she's known primarily for her singing.
Lee, on the other hand, is a songwriter, through and through.
And he can do it all.
He spouts politics in "Freedom.
" He channels Woody Guthrie in "Night Train." He lightens up and gets a bit silly to ukelele accompaniment in "Sweet Pea."
Despite the variety, it's all pure Lee.
