TOMORROW kicks off this CD with a rock and roll riff that you might be familiar with as you get to read along with his lyrics on his you tube video. He even sings harmonies with himself. Check it out. MISSING YOU is quite different as the beat is right on, as he sings about missing you. He even plays the recorder in this song which is quite different to hear. Interesting.
ALLEGHENY tells the story about him being in the Allegheny area and the people he knows in the area. The song is pure rock and roll with a cool chorus. Rock and Roll. DOIN' HERE starts out with a spacey feel and he goes into a nice acoustic sound as he tells a story one again. Pretty interesting. SIMPLE MAN is a cool rock and roll song as he keeps a hard driving guitar sound throughout the song. The melody and lyrics are right on target. Let it rip and crank it up!
RHYTHM ENGINE is a basic rock and roll song with chords you might have heard before. Amazing how many songs you can make with three chords and bridge. Check his songs out and enjoy the ride. Also, his vocals have to be desired by all. I want THANK ROGER for being in touch with me. You can find him at:You tube. www.rogerhammer.com, Facebook, Apple Music.
