Rock Music 4 ALL

Saga is the latest Rock CD released by the highly group Saga and they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I’m confident Saga fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one.

Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Saga has a pleasantly varied, mix of 8 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly superb musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They’re all here.

If you’re a Saga fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don’t even have to be a fan of lname, or even Rock to know is good. This is just good music. Period.

While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 – Humble Stance, track 4 – Will It Be You?, and track 8 – Tired World

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – How Long. What a nice track!

Trio Of Doom, the richly talented Rock group have released their latest CD titled Trio Of Doom and Wow! It’s good.

Unfortunately, it’s not everyday that I get a CD for review that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Trio Of Doom. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Trio Of Doom is one of those groups that have the ability to just bowl you over with their collective talent. The kind of musicians it’s really a treat to be able to listen to.

If you’re a Trio Of Doom fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don’t even have to be a fan of lname, or even Rock to know is good. This is just good music. Period.

While this entire CD is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 2 – Dark Prince, track 5 – Are You The One, Are You The One?, and track 10 – Para Oriente.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Drum Improvisation. What a nice track!

The exceptionally talented Rock group Trapeze have released their CD entitled Medusa. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Trapeze fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Medusa their artistic excellence is on full display as they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be their best work to date.

Medusa kicks off with an outstanding track, Black Cloud, that I suspect will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It really is a very nice track.

Medusa has a pleasantly varied, mix of 7 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly gifted musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

If you’re a Trapeze fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don’t even have to be a fan of lname, or even Rock to know is good. It’s just good music. Period.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 3 – Your Love Is Alright, track 6 – Makes You Wanna Cry, and track 7 – Medusa.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Black Cloud. Wow!

Not sure what’s happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Blink 182 gets. Blink 182 stated simply is one of their best CDs to date.

I wish it weren’t the case but, it’s not everyday that I get a CD for review that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Blink 182. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Rock isn’t your favorite style you still can’t help but appreciate the greatness of the musicians.

If you’re a Blink 182 fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don’t even have to be a fan of lname, or even Rock to know is good. This is just good music. Period.

While the entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 5 – Stockholm Syndrome, track 12 – All Of This, and track 14 – I’m Lost Without You

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Feeling This. Good stuff!
