Time Can Change is clearly the product of a talented musician. Yet it's not exciting, it's not innovative, and it's certainly not original. The musician responsible for this beguiling mess is Seth Walker, who's only the most recent laid-back singer-songwriter to put out a meandering and uninspired release.
