REVIEWS;Pete Smith/ Country Music Journalist & Broadcaster/ UK. Writing in The Advertiser, The Catholic Post and Country Music Roundup. Tom Lambert, from Belfast, began his entertaining career at the age of twelve. Dispirited by the troubles in his homeland, Tom moved to Australia where his stone country approach and songwriting talent quickly led to a recording contract. In Australia Lambert was nominated for awards in several 'Best' categories including, Male Singer, Album, Song and Talent. Returning to Ireland in 1976 Tom settled in County Armagh. 'American Heart' (part one) [TOM & JERRY Label] is the guy's latest album, a collection of original songs that owe nothing to contemporary Nashville or to Ireland, but are firmly seated in the traditions of Hank and Lefty, Red and Ernest.

Irene Flind-Madsen/ Radio Amager, Skovlunde, Denmark. Great mix of up-tempo and ballads, my favorite songs are /ALL CUTS. Graham Hassall/ Country Music Journalist & Broadcaster / Radio Nightingale, Notts, England. Writing in North Country Music. A thoroughly enjoyable CD with great traditional style, super singing and music on every track. This talented
singer/songwriter puts his songs over really well and I have chosen these as my
favorites, Toms easy, laid back style is very appealing country music, making this a quality release. Chris Pasco/ BBC Radio Cornwall, Truro. Nice one, look forward to 'Part Two'. My favorite songs are; 'A Truckers Tribute To Red Sovine'/ 'One Stop Too Many'/ 'Country Sound'. Alan Potter/Stray FM, Yorkshire Dales Radio. I enjoyed the album very much. Good trad' sounds but not dated. Tom has an authentic sounding country voice and I'm looking forward to hearing more from him. My favorite songs are 'A Truckers Tribute To Red Sovine'/ 'One Stop Too Many'/ 'Country Line Dancin' Queen' and 'Crazy Love ( from a crazy lady'. Part narrative, part
sung, Irish native Tom Lambert puts forth a pure country collection of
honky-tonk tunes that range from line dancing descriptions to trucker
storytelling of Phantom 309

Heart (Part One)". "Holger Petersen", hpthedj32@hotmail.com "The best of true and real
country music I have heard for a long time. It's hard to pick up a special song,
