Click the link above to read full article Seven Days Burlington, VT 4.11.04 Beginning of the Dream (Self-released, CD) [Formerly titled "Jeremy Harple, Jeremy Harple"] The 11 tracks on Jeremy Harple's eponymous CD offer just a small sample of his work; according to the liner notes, the Cambridge, Vermont singer-song-writer has written more than 200 songs over the past 10 years. Recorded recently at Green Mountain Studios, these originals contain a wealth of interesting lyrics about love and life, wicked acoustic guitar playing, lots of unself-conscious vocalizing and some fine, bluesy harmonica work. All this good music meshes together seamlessly. One of the best things about Harple's music is the already developed "Harple sound" - listen to the disc and you'll hear practically nothing that sounds like someone else. "Stand Your Ground" is a standout track here, full of everything there is to like about Harple's music: a catchy refrain, incessant rhythm, quirky timing. This guy has the chops - see for yourself at his gig this Thrusday at Radio Bean, with Blackthorne Wilderness. Robert Resnick New England Music Scrapbook Jeremy Harple and his "Harple Sound" Vermont's Jeremy Harple has issued a new album - a debut, if we understand this correctly - called simply Jeremy Harple (CD, self released, [2003?]) [now titled Beginning of the Dream]. I a highly quotable review, Robert Resnick of Seven Days (and Vermont public Radio) wrote, "One of the best things about Harple's music is the already developed Harple sound - listen to the disc and you'll hear practically nothing that sounds like someone else. Not only have we never heard of Jeremy Harple, we don't recall even having heard of him. So we think this qualifies as coming out of nowhere. We'll see what this new disc does for his career."
