Feedback - Into The Bottomlands:
 - “A poet with a guitar, Thomas Hine takes a slice of blues and adds a dash of folk to make a true Americana pie. Hine combines introspective lyrics and ear-friendly musical composition for a unique, heartfelt convert. He's got a Bob Dylan mind and an Andrew Bird ear; it's a winning combination.” Boulder Daily Camera http://www.dailycamera.com/ci_18545738?source=rss
 - "Thanks for the CD, excellent songs and voice, we will be playing tracks from this week." Lee Williams
 - "It makes me think of the urge to dismiss that must have confronted many contemporaries reviewing works by Townes Van Zandt." Lars Larsson
 - "I got your cd called 'Into The Bottomlands' today and I just listened to it. I enjoyed very much and I thank you for your consideration. I'll add some of your songs to my radio show called 'Happy Trails' on Susa Onda Radio, Italy." Remo Ricaldone
 - "Thank you very much for sending me your new cd Into the Bottomlands.  This week I've included the title song on my playlist.  It took me several spins to apreciate the cd as a whole, but now I'm hooked!

Mike Penard, Radio ISA France
