Intimate Aural SnapshotColie wrote on November 27, 2007
"Declarations of Codependence is an intimate aural snapshot and view into the mind, feelings, and speculations of one Rick Barry. It is here in the sparse musical landscape of one man and one guitar where the sensitivity, depth, and true meaning of Rick's repertoire emerges.. Its real, complete with warts and bruises, but that's the beauty of this album.. Its honesty and the soul piercing clarity of the writer's sentiments.. I dig it.." - Colie Brice
