Folk music, like any art form, can be enjoyed without being understood. Fans of LJ Booth, however, seem to instinctively know why his songs have such appeal Some of them we call them "critics" hit the proverbial nail on the head with observations such as: "...this gifted singer-songwriter's...keen fascination with life's journey draws listeners closer to the memories and revelations that make it worth traveling;" "A master craftsman of incredibly profound songs;" "hilarious, outrageous, inspirational;" "nothing but buried treasure;" "A fantastic collection of tunes that reveal the breadth of LJ's understanding;" "Simply great music!" As an added bonus to his fans, LJ shares some of the serendipitous occurrences and mysteries of writing. "I know I'm in songwriting heaven if, when I first open my eyes in the morning, there's a song suspended above me...like it's floating in an ether screen;" "Like most songwriters, I keep a fair amount of partial songs in my head; "...some of us never learn to open the oyster shell until we see our mortality racing straight toward us, like a flaming sports car." An LJ concert is a little like all of those images. Floating, racing, memorable. "Seasoned performers are priceless in the era of short-term 'discoveries', and LJ Booth is among the most adept and accomplished songwriters and storytellers in the country. His comfortable presence, stellar songs, and stage banter make for a concert experience that resonates... "Mike Meyer, KRVM-fm, Oregon Public Broadcasting
