GUMSHOE is a 4 piece rock band hailing from North Richland Hills, Oklahoma Please don't get them confused with another band using the band's name, there is a major difference. The band members are: ERIC YOUNGKIN-Lead vocals, guitar: MERRITT WOODWARD: Vocals, lead guitar: ROBERT KRAMER: Bass and SHERIDAN STEIN: Drums. This 13 song Cd was Produced, Mixed and Engineered by Eric Youngkin and Merritt Woodward and Mastered by Rick & Carlos. Get ready for a real thrill ride with this band. DON'T YOU WORRY is a great song to kick off this CD and it has a great melody. I must admit, it reminds me a bit of T. Rex and Spacehog.The guitar riff is great, too. BABY'S GOT A ZOOT SUIT reminds me a bit of Oasis with all the same reflections of Liam or Noel Gallagher singing. This song is a must to hear! WISH ME AWAY is a straightforward rock and roll song with a choppy guitar and solid beat.You could swear this was a British band you're listening to. MARISUE is a acoustic, laid back song that is sung from the heart. This song will take you to la-la land. Listen closely to the lyrics THOUGHTS OF A GENTLEMAN is a strong rock song that will get in your head as they tell you a story about making dreams come true. PRAY FOR RAIN brings this quite amazing CD to an end with great harmonies and some sweet guitar work. This band is quite impeccable, to say the least. I believe this CD is really hard to find, but you can find Eric Youngkin on: Facebook, Soundclick and eric younkin photography ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [www.steelnotesmagazine.com]
