Track by track Review:
Read My Lips- The first track makes us feel Kerr is walking out of the shadows to tell us a story by saying read my lips, nice laid back track reminiscent of the breakup songs of the early 60’s with a slow strolling beat.
I"D Be Lying –Another ballad style tune with traits of the Duane Eddy sound on guitar and a soothing vocals from Kerr and some neat picking midway.
Walk A Dark And Lonely Street- A lament setting the scene about the title in a melodramatic fashion, often eerie with Elvis stye vocals from Kerr.
If I Fall- The last track and we end with a full on Rocker highly energetic and pulsating. Andy on drums works overtime with Marty playing some neat licks and Kerr on vocals gives it some characteristic echo’s.
So, lets Summarise here we have three nice laid back tracks and a full throttle stomper a collection of contrasts to please the audience certainly worth a listen to these masterpieces from the Kerr Donnelly vaults.
