Step Inside
Review by Gary Hill
This album is pretty close to perfect. The blend of sounds here runs from rock to jazz to blues and more. It’s generally all quite soulful, though, probably landing most often in the R&B genre. It starts off very strong and stays that way for the first three songs. Then we start to hear a few songs that are weaker here and there. The thing is, those tunes are weak in comparison to the rest of the stuff here, but not really weak taken by themselves. All in all, this is a strong release that should entertain a wide range of people.
This review is available in book format (hardcover and paperback) in Music Street Journal: 2013 Volume 5 at lulu.com/strangesound.
