Homesick (Chris Price album)

Self-produced by Price, the album was recorded entirely on an iPhone 4 using nothing but the mic of the phone and an app called 4Tracks that simulates the process of recording to 4-track tape recording. Lead single "That's Your Boyfriend" was chosen as ITunes Single Of The Week at the time of release. Reception. The album received generally positive reviews. Writing a 4 star review for the New York Daily News, Jim Farber says "Price may not  be the first person to record a full album this way, but he could be the most talented to do so. He has the skill to mimic classic pop in his compositions. While the songwriter grew up in Miami, and now lives in L.A., his songs have a vintage Brit-pop snap, evident in their Carnaby Street-styled melodies and their subject matter, much of the latter askew enough to impress Ray Davies." Katie Hasty writes in HitFix about lead single "That's Your Boyfriend", "it’s little wonder that the single 'That’s Your Boyfriend' is today’s (May  22) iTunes Single of the Week." The blog Powerpopaholic wrote, in a 9 out of 10 review, "the melodies are darn near perfect, similar to Mike Viola on the title track, and “Suicide” is a fast paced gem with jangling riffs."
