A Review from George Grove

Andy Elliott is a rare and gifted talent whose
lyrical and musical voice commands recognition. His
songs range from the whimsical to the ultra-serious,
touching humanity right in the center of reality.
I have personally recorded seven of Andy's well
crafted songs, on two different projects. On a
recording entitled Where Have All the Flowers Gone? A
Vietnam Veteran's Memorial Album, Andy was given a
scenario with regards to either a real life occurrence
from the Viet Nam war or a situational accounting of
the emotions generated by that war, and his songs were
not only essential to the successful production of
that project but actually became the focal point of
the project. On my solo CD entitled In the Middle of
a Life, I recorded three of Andy's songs. I continue
to beg him for anything and everything he writes, and
I expect to continue recording his songs on my future
CDs.

Although one may have never met Andy, his songs
command instant respect for him and encourage intimate
friendship with him. The insights he brings to song
writing, both in the subject matter and the musical
treatment, invoke that reaction.

I am proud to call Andy my friend, and I never cease
to be amazed at his clever and insightful writing.

Sincerely,


George Grove
