With all the heavy metal that I review an album like this is a welcome friend that needs to visit more often, for sure.Don't get me wrong I love all the music that I get but mostly what I get is heavy metal.










The songs are well written and performed at a level that one can appreciate this is some really enjoyable music, this is World Gypsy Rock he has a raspy voice very similar to that of Rod Stewart.


Below is a performance of the first song on the album titled


"Fever In Me"









 Last year he had the distinct honor of opening for John Fogerty, here is what he had to say about that on his site:


Well
what more can one really say after opening for a TRUE LEGEND like John
Fogerty!! <3 !! I simply cannot express enough gratitude for such an
amazing opportunity & to share energies on this scale... I am so
gratefully humbled & honored... John took the stage like he was
still 17 yrs old!! even though he's 67... you would have never have
known... Truly a magnificently awe struck eve... This was truly the
greatest display of raw natural talent I have ever seen on a musical
stage... I would get into the details... but instead I will suggest to
all of you... Go see John Fogerty while ya still can!! It will be the
musical highlight of your lives!!



I'd love ta thank the lovely older couple we danced with all night long
at the show... They shared the stories of when they were first together @
Woodstock 68' when the Grateful Dead had just finished playing &
CCR took the stage!! Amazing that not only are they still together...
they were sharing that memory @ John Fogertys show in 2012 with me n' my
crew!! Amazingly beautiful & SoOoo much fun!!


 There is some really good and enjoyable music on this album and wish him the best in his travels and his future in his career "Storm" is a fantastic song one of my favorite songs on the album for sure.


 


Thank you for reading this


Sincerely


Anthony Nadeau
