YOU GOT ME brings the acoustic guitar into use as Paul's voice is so sweet to hear. The melody is excellent, to say the least.The harmonies near the end are quite amazing.Check it out. LET IT ROLL has a southern rock taste which is so sweet to hear, the slide guitar will really get to you. I must admit, I could easily get hooked on this song.
YOU DROWNED ME has the sound of the great '90 rock band we used to listen to. Remember all those 'hair bands'? Bringing back those great memories. NOT THAT PROUD is a bit laid back with a sweet sounding guitar as it weaves in between Paul's vocals.I love this one and it's, definitely, worth checking out.
AIN'T LIKE IT USE TO BE brings this amazing album to an end. This song is straight up rock and roll with a British flavor touch.Get up out of your seats and start dancing, because this song is that great. I love it. I want to give PAUL KEEN a BIG THANK YOU for being in touch.You can find the band at: You tube, Facebook, Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music Deezer and other sites. ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [STEEL NOTES MAGAZINE.]
