 The
UnHerd 'Looking for the Light' ($15)
World class first 'solo' release by
"the voice" of legendary 70's group ORLEANS (Still The One,
Dance With Me, Love Takes Time etc.). If you like those sounds
you'll LOVE this. A totally killin' band: Bassist Tony Levin
(Peter Gabriel, King Crimson, James Taylor); co-producer and
Keyboardist David Sancious (Sting, Springsteen) and many other
notables like Billy Squier and the Doobie Brothers', Steely
Dan's sax man Cornelius Bumpus. The mostly original tunes all
have strong melodies with lyrics of substance (and suitable
for all ages). The vocals are stunning, and production is big
without losing the energy of the live tracks and group vocal
sessions. This CD is the flagship for the artist's own charity
Sunshine For HIV Kids and all
monies go to support that nonprofit. Recorded here in
Woodstock, NY where all these people live, it sounds like they
had a great time doing this one! A real treasure for those
lucky enough to have found it. Bonus: Included is A GREAT
cover of Lennon-McCartney's "No Reply"!

'Handmade' ($15)
Larry Hoppen has assembled a collection
of soulful original music going back to 1979 for his latest
CD, Hand Made. The tracks include live cuts, demo tracks, and
full-blown production masterpieces like the adult contemporary
duet, "Keep On Shining", with female vocalist Terry Pinkham,
that sounds ready for Disney to snatch as a power ballad
behind another animated masterpiece. Hoppen's voice is
perfectly smooth and soulful, and his lyrics are personally
revealing. His songs touch a chord in anyone who
has juggled a musical life and love with the rest of
traditional family life. Particular highlights include "Closer
to You", a beautiful tune that chronicles a husband's need to
be closer to his wife and understood; "My World Stopped
Turning" is a soulful bit of earcandy within a heart breaking
recap of a hard break-up; and "A Season to Remember" starts as
a bare piece with piano and vocal that allows Hoppen's unique
and trained voice to shine as he reflects on special years
gone by. Hoppen reminds me of David Pomeranz in the way he
phrases his lines and writing - touching listeners with
ease. This 25 year veteran of Orleans (Still the One) keeps
getting better.
