GREG WOLLAN -
DEEP CALLS 2 DEEP
|
|
|
Greg Wollan started out as a member of Steve Taylors band many moons ago. From there Greg went on to become a member of Doug Powells wonderful band (Many know Doug who also played with Todd Rundgren.) More recently Greg Wollan has fully matured into a really fine solo artist on his own. He makes majestic and heartfelt music that is a perfect marriage of progressive/pop/rock/music. The songs here are lengthy and sublime! The production is flawless and the harmony vocals are heavenly as is the music as a whole. The vocals call to mind Dennis Deyoung of Styx, Kansas, Phil Keaggy, Neal Morse (Spocks Beard), Ed James, and more. This is a fantastic cd musically and is highly recommended to all fans of intelligent progressive rock, It's music with a message. If you have never heard Greg Wollan before, please start here with this release. As for his fans, this is his deepest and most mature release to date. Living up to its title, "Deep calls 2 Deep" is a major achievement in the world of progressive/pop/rock and certainly not to be missed! ***Special introductory nice price!!! Pick this one up now and you'll be glad you did. The more I hear this, the more I like it! A breath of fresh air in a polluted musical world.

THIRD OF NEVER -
MOOD RING
|
|
The debut JAM release from THIRD OF NEVER is already in my top 10 list for 2007. The cd is a must have for all power pop fans. The brain child of Jon Dawson, THIRD OF NEVER boasts an all star line up with appearances from members of THE GRIP WEEDS, THE SMITHEREENS, and THE WHO. Kurt Reil does the lead vocals, drums, keys, and guitars, John "Rabbit" Bundrick lays down some classic Mellotron and other keyboard sounds. John Dawson covers guitars, Vince Grogan on Bass, CJ Grogan on guitars, vocals, keys, and harmonica. Dennis Diken on Drums, with Kristen Reil on slide guitar. If you dig The Beatles, The Grip Weeds, New England, Foo Fighters, and The Who, you will find much to like here. Their cover of Pete Townsends "Let my love open the Door" eclipses the original with it's over the top energy and hard drive. "Mood Ring" is a feel good release with many positive sound vibrations. ( The cd is grade A all the way) Once you pop this in your player, you'll be in the mood to hear "Mood Ring" over and over again. Releases this good only come along once in a blue moon so don't miss out. Bottom line: Get it now!

RAQUELS BOYS -
THE SPY BUSINESS

"The Spy Business" is the latest release from America's power pop band "RAQUELS BOYS". Those who heard their last cd know that this band is all about 60's retro power pop on par with the many SUNDAZED record releases The sound is guitar driven, with very occasional keyboard flourishes added to spice up the sound. The vibe of this music is that of "Sunshine pop" tunes from a more innocent era. No politics, no pretensions, just pure power pop fun. The spirit of 67!

JEREMY -
MADE IN FRANCE
|
|
Jeremy recently performed many concerts while touring England, France, and Spain. While in France, this album was recorded. The disc is part live/part studio and focuses mainly on Jeremy's Beatlesque guitar stylings and vocals. This is a crystal clear recording and highly recommended. Strong points are the amazing atmospheric elements and pure pop performances. Some have called this Jeremy's "naked album" because there are no overdubs or extra layering. In short, this is reel to real! Also appearing on this album are April Morris on percussion and vocals, and Guillermo Cazenave. "Made in France" is a breath of fresh air. Organic in nature, pure in sound.

New 2005 release with JEREMY MORRIS and Russian musician PROGRESSOR. This cd is pure instrumental progressive rock. The sound is groundbreaking and unlike anything you would usually hear. Imagine Joe Satriani jamming good with Vangelis and Jean Michel Jarre and you have an idea. "The Pearl of great Price" is further recommended to any serious Pink Floyd fan. The guitar leads on this disc often echoe that of classic David Gilmour in his prime: atmospheric and intense!
(Those who long for soloing electric prog-rock guitar, put this on your list! ) Synthesizer solos abound as well with fantastic interplay !
This cd release perfectly merges the best moments of Rock,Electronic,Symphonic,and Space Music, into one amazing sound. Highly recommended! Grade A
(Russian/French Import released on MALS/MUSEA )

JEREMY -
FIND THE WAY TO BE HAPPY
|
|
Rave reviews are out and Jeremy just keeps getting better and better with each release. "Find the Way to be Happy" is a delight for fans of melodic, jangly, uplifting rock. Inspired from the best moments of Byrds, Beatles, Badfinger, Big Star, and so much more...merging into his own unique creation of power pop soundscapes. "Find the way to be Happy" will keep the listener's ear glued to the speaker with an easy flow of pleasant sounds highlighted by masterful guitar work and vocal harmonies galore. Excellent and well done. THE ROCK AND ROLL REPORT SAYS:
"Jeremy and his band manage to peel off some incredibly tight power pop riffs mixed in with great vocals and impeccable production." ..Badfinger and Big Star come immediately to mind without sounding cliched...some amazng guitar breaks that sound just right for each song." BEVERLY PATERSON OF TWIST AND SHAKE SAYS: " Brilliant doesn't even begin to describe the latest album from Jeremy Morris. It seems like this multifaceted musician gets better and better with every disc.
One of the year's best

New on JAM! Great sophmore cd release from Illinois power pop giants The Ringles. The Ringles are masters of the circa 1967 psych-pop sound. The band has much in common soundwise with The Green Pajamas, The Rooks, The Moon,

The Eddies are brothers Dale and Dean Hoth (Guitar and Bass) along with Cris Cordero (Drums) This band creates fun power pop that is a morphing of early Who, The Cars, Weezer, Shambles, and some B52s. The sound is basic, no frills power pop rock. Definately a must for those who prefer the indie sound! Well done and true to its genre.

Jeremy and Cazenave -
Two Suns
|
|
Brand new double cd for the price of one!!! TWO SUNS is the first in a series of collaborations between Jeremy Morris and Spanish musician Guillermo Cazenave. TWO SUNS is truely a pop record filled with Beatle influenced sounds (especially Beatle John circa Imagine). Furthermore, this album contains shades of Big Star (third), early Genesis(their pastoral side ala Anthony Phillips) and some fantastic progressive moments as well. Their sound is heavy folk pop to some degree while also being very cosmic and ambient. A sumblime recording, TWO SUNS has already become a favorite among many! Highly Recommended/GRADE A (Spanish Import) *note:All songs are sung in English
