Flint's songs are simple, the musicianship is superb, and the sound's full yet clean with a definite feel-good quality.
"It certainly looks like Flint will be playing cupid this year with this warm and good feeling group of songs....I do not think music could get any more down to earth and real....This is definitely the kind of album that will grow on you...I will promise you that."

"What a hoot!"
We think it's wonderful! We love it!
Flint Westrock's debut effort, Wake Me Up With Kissin, is a charming and oftentimes chivalrous collection of songs that evoke the simplicity and intimacy of true love. Sometimes quirky, sometimes folksy, Flint's lyrics feel honest and refreshing. In addition, harmonica, organ, piano, and guitar sections stand out throughout the album. While Flint's singing style is somewhat limited in range, backup vocals effectively reinforce the album and by staying soft-spoken, Flint holds onto a home-style sound that evokes images of a man singing to his love until the last star is extinguished from the sky. Wake Me Up With Kissin, Vegetables of Love, and Love Snack are just a few of the gems hidden on this tidy debut album.
It gave me a happy heart, and made me want to dance around the kitchen!
I cleaned my house to it...and it's never been cleaner!
I just love every song and especially your obviously inspired and deeply felt appreciation of women.
"...but absolutely also Charm...und if it rockt, which, like with "Kissin You"...then he knows Flint, which it concerns." [Come again? Oh well, the point is, they like it.]
