Read What Others Have To Say: ?Andy Budd, singer, songwriter extraordinaire. Thirteen original, real good, feel good songs that soothe the soul and puts a smile on my face.? - Lyle Thompson, Austin, TX Andy, I am so impressed with your "Saints & Scoundrels" CD! I can't stop playing it! 13 songs that touch every human emotion. More please! Allan Stukel, Fairfax, VA ?Andy Budd's musical style is distinctive yet familiar--perhaps because it is intensely personal while reflecting experiences shared in common with his listeners. The myriad of adventures Andy has had and continues to live have brought meaning and a depth of understanding to life that comes through clearly in his lyrics. The strong influence of family and friends, the value of commitment to God and country, the obligation to share one's gifts and the importance of living life to the full are unmistakable. "Saints and Scoundrels" is an impressive debut with all the heart and soul of country music. Every song on the CD stays with you long after the final track is played.? Melissa Bosso, Springfield, MO ??a very refreshing album. It's obviously comes from the heart and many personal experiences. What makes it unique, I think everyone can recall similar times in their lives when they knew their lives were changing courses, losing loved ones, and feeling high as the result of hard work and accomplishment. I still especially like the Cold November Morning song. I've listened to the CD many, many times and every time I hear (or think of) something I missed before. Great music and lyrics.? Bill Long, Woodbridge, VA ?WOW! I love this CD. Hearing bits and pieces of some of the songs over the last year or two whet my appetite for more. ?Saints & Scoundrels? definitely delivers the full course! Your life is in your songs and your songs are full of life. Amazing! I am in awe of your latest accomplishment. Not only do your songs cause me to reflect on my own life (you know, the lion and the sheep thing), but staff at my office who have heard your songs can relate to them as well. I think you have some real hits here. Melissa and I will continue to be your greatest fans. Your music has stimulated me to dust off what musical talent might be in me and go for a "fix" too.? Dan ? Springfield, MO ?I laughed and cried listening to your CD - PLEASE make more. I absolutely love listening to you and can't find the right words to express the feelings I had with each song. You are a wonderful writer!? ? June Wrenn ? Vienna, VA ?A must in all record collections. If you like Randy Travis or Alan Jackson, you?ll love this CD!. I´m thrilled.? Lars G Lindberg MD-Radio Siljan,Mora,Sweden www.radiosiljan.com ?this CD is heartfelt, and an excellent listen!!? ? Paula Hensley ? Centreville, VA
