    “One of the great US songwriters…11 new originals…several of them are among his best…Case knows that his songs don’t need perfume and a clean suit.” – MOJO

    "...It is a powerful set that finds his skills as a songwriter and his strength as a singer undiminished...Doctor Moan finds Peter Case in outstanding mature form...A grade”
    --- THE VINYL DISTRICT

    “Doctor Moan is filled with personal reflections on a long, storied career, but it’s never maudlin or dispirited. In fact, Case’s varied musical palette commands the listener to lean in close to view musical dioramas of scenes gone by, from the barroom blues of “Ancient Sunrise” to the Memphis appeal of “The Flying Crow.” Even the lovely two-minute “4D,” Case’s first recorded instrumental, lends further emotion and shadow to a three-dimensional listen.” -- NO DEPRESSION

    “The cinematic and evocative single and album opener, “Have You Ever Been in Trouble” sets the tone for Peter Case’s Doctor Moan album.” – THE BIG TAKEOVER

    On 16th solo album Doctor Moan, triple Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Peter Case channels spirits of jazz, blues, and boogie-woogie into exquisitely nuanced expressions. Released by Sunset Blvd Records, Case’s first piano-based release is sonically sparse yet emotionally rich, capturing the peak of both his songcraft and voice with an organic authenticity rare in the digital age. “I try to take things I love and use them in a new way,” mulled Case. “I grew up on 1950s and ‘60s rock & roll and folk. I learned how to play blues here in San Francisco, out on the street, and then was part of the punk rock movement … It’s all still in there; it’s my musical DNA. Hopefully it opens up peoples’ hearts and lets them feel emotions that they want to feel but don’t usually have,” he concluded. “And a lot of them are focused on surviving in this world now, so hopefully the warmth of companionship and comfort, too.”

lyrics

Eyes Of Love

I fix my eyes on lines of strangers
Lift a song--sweet--stolen from a king
Never guess the meaning of kindness
'Til you turn to me
With the eyes of love
With the eyes of love
With the eyes of love
Love's to the reason
what eyes are to the mind

I stumble and fall without knowing
Where I stop or who walks by my side
Never hear the words of forgiveness
'Til you let me see
With the eyes of love
With the eyes of love
With the eyes of love
Love's to the reason
what eyes are to the mind

I climb back up--return to battle
The peace we crave--just another kind of war
This cold land--lost and forgotten
'Til you set me free
Through the eyes of love
Through the eyes of love
Through the eyes of love
Love's to the reason
what eyes are to the mind.
