David Ritz, Grammy Award-winning author and co-writer of Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing, hears in Ryan "a haunting voice, a heightened literary sensibility, and a passion for exploring the mysteries of his deep musical soul..." From the melancholy soft lullaby of the title track, to the head-nodding-fonk-meets-shimmering-lyricism of the lead single, You, Girl , to the easy-rollin uptempo jam, You Might Change Your Mind, Ryan creates music that is, to quote one MySpace fan, "like a gingerbread cookie straight out of the oven with smooth creamy jams on top. His music makes your heart putter and your ears warm." Legendary producer and engineer Rob Fraboni (Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton) joined the project to create a disc with a singular character all classic albums inevitably possess.
