First off, people on this site need to get their crap straight....Rich never opened for Creager in Lubbock, that show was changed and he opened for Cory Morrow in Huntsville, Second, Rich and his band are a VERY talented group of musicians, who are going to make it very far in this business. You know it's sad that there are people out there like you, who have to get on LSM and bash other artist to make yourself feel better. YOU are the "TOOL", for not going to see him, and my questions to you is how do you know what a "real" musician is..you obviously havent been to a Rich O'Toole show!
AWESOME you got to get out there to see him. They put on one hell of a show.
Rich O'Toole's album is GREAT!!If you havent had the chacne to check him out full band yet, i advise that you do so. They are different then any other band, full of energy, and just all around great guys! Buy the album, the kid is going to be HUGE!!!! Get out there and keep supporting GOOD TEXAS COUNTRY MUSIC!!!
nice sound, vocals a little weak, prob needs better mixing
hell i liked it alright. pretty solid debut, and 'queen of the misfits' is catchy as hell
Don't know who ML is but he must be deaf. Seventeen is a great record with great songs and we have reviewed it and cover Rich and his band in Texas Music Times. This record is even building demand in Europe where one fan from England wrote me an email and said it was a "Cracker". That means good over there. So, those who have great taste are catching on to Rich O'toole and getting out to see his band and buying the record. The live performance is even better.

This may be the best album of 2006. It's hard to say, because my tastes change from day to day, but it's certainly in the top five. It's probably too soon to apply the "genius" label to young Mr. O'Toole, but his songwriting is engaging and relevant, his vocal style is captivating, and Mack Damon's production showcases Rich's natural talent. Songs like "Everything's Legal," "Kelly Comes To Town," and "Robert E. Lee" help make this is one great record -- I can't wait for the next one!
