notes
Michael’s hope is that, after listening to any or all of his CDs, one will be able to say, “If you’ve heard one, you’ve heard one.”
There is no one “Michael Bonanno style”. Left Where I Write On is an example of the diversity with which Michael Bonanno writes, performs and produces his music.
Bands with which Michael played were heavily into 60s and 70s “soul” music. You can catch some of this in “Knock Yourself Out”. This is a song that was fun to make.
The seven minute and thirty-two second “Children Of God” emphasizes the polarizing affect of religion in today’s world. “Children Of God” is seven minutes long because Michael didn’t want to ignore any of “the biggies”. “Children Of God” is really a question and its music is reminiscent of Pete Seeger’s style of delivering a Folk Song.
Michael exhibits the allure that country music has on him in “A Long Way From Home” and “I’m Leaving You”. The guitar solo in “I’m Leaving You” has a dreamy quality to it. All in all, Michael makes sure that his rock roots aren’t totally lost in these two tracks. A great mix of country and rock.
Simple but cryptic, “Who Came For Me Last Night” features the satisfaction Michael gets from playing the keys.
Cryptic also are the last three songs, “Back Into My Head”, “Where I Am” and “Colony Road”. The music, especially in “Back Into My Head”, puts a strong emphasis on the introspective lyrics. Michael does some sweet guitar work in each of these songs, but the guitar solo in “Back Into My Head” is kick ass.
The only connection that the title of “Colony Road” has to the rest of the song is that the song was written on a small side road named – you guessed it – Colony Road.
Left Where I Write On is shorter than most of Michael’s albums, but it’s just as diverse and exhibits the artist’s diverse talents.
