notes
Worldclass first 'solo' release by "the voice" of legendary 70s group ORLEANS (Still The One, Dance With Me, Love Takes Time etc.). If you like those sounds you'll LOVE this.
A totally killin' band: Tony Levin (bass/P. Gabriel, King Crimson, James Taylor) co-producer David Sancious (keys/Sting, Springsteen) and many other notables like Billy Squier, Cornelius Bumpus.
The mostly original tunes all have strong melodies with lyrics of substance (and suitable for all ages). The vocals are stunning, and production is big without losing the energy of the live tracks and group vocal sessions. This CD is the flagship for the artist's own charity Sunshine For HIV Kids and all monies go to support that nonprofit.
Recorded here in Woodstock, NY where all these people live, it sounds like they had a great time doing this one! A real treasure for those lucky enough to have found it. Bonus: Included is A GREAT cover of Lennon-McCartney's "No Reply"!

From the second I put "looking for the Light" into the cd player, it came alive
