Clark Colborn’s Most Recent Album and Digital Single Get Rave Reviews
August 1st, 2012, Rockford, IL – Clark Colborn has been busy in 2012. His new album was released in January with a digital single following in July. Both have joined Colborn’s debut album in getting some great reviews from critics. Here are some examples of the accolades being placed on Colborn’s music.
· “…on this Beatles cover he goes all out to record a beautified guitar instrumental take on the classic. His skills are simply unmatched by anyone as he shows how a track like this can actually benefit from his electrifying touch. The symphonic parts are simply gritty, dirty and tasteful, not unlike that of a metal attempt at the track. But the melody finds itself in a somehow more diverse simplicity and naturally more musical effort than metal can deliver. From the opening notes to the last few, it ends right where it left off with a feathery light appeal. In between there are bursts of inspiration at every turn in the arrangement. Colborn is one of the most lyrical guitarists in the business, and he sings on the strings every second of the way. I've always loved this track as it is, even the Rare Earth version holds a place with me, but this brings it into the now and puts a hook like no other on it.” – Larry Toering – Music Street Journal
· “Clark Colborn plays guitar. That simple statement sums up a lot. In fact, Clark doesn't merely play guitar, he attacks it, he soothes it, he coaxes all manner of sounds from it. The guy is a guitar virtuoso, but much more tasteful than a mere ‘shredder’ who makes the instrument beg for mercy with endless neoclassical arpeggio blasts and brutal polyrhythms.” – Dr. Abner Mality – Wormwood Chronicles
· “Clark's guitar prowess is evident. The man plays guitar like a journeyman. I could hear echoes of the heavier side of 70's prog,a thread moving throughout that makes me think of Martin Barre on "Thick as A Brick".” - Chris Erbeck – Prognaut.com
