The Outernet - The Light & The Fury - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, The Light & The Fury, from The Outernet and it's electrifying. Opening with The Fury, Phil Turcio on keys and Emilio Kormanic on guitars lead a high paced fusion track with an excellent presentation. Romping bass lines by Pete Mollica and tight drum work by Pete Drummond leave you breathless. Excellent opener. The Crossing is a super composition with an aggressive bottom. Mollica and Drummond are anything but subdued with excellent rhythm work and Turcio splashes in a bright piano solo to cap this one off. Menacing Images has a driving bottom and Drummond plays intense drum lead paired closely with Mollica and Turcio, Kormanic rips on guitar again and takes things down in tempo but without losing the enthusiasm with thought provoking piano work. Another strong track. Running From The Aliens (Pt I) has a great lead guitar rhythm melody synched with Turcio on keys and  Mollica and Drummond reinforcing the rhythm. An energetic, clean bass lead by Mollica is exceptional making this one of my favorites on the release.  Wrapping the release is beautiful, The Light, led elegantly by Kormanic on guitar caressed by Turcio on keys . This is an excellent release and a great fusion performance.

Charles Tiner - Good Soul - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Good Soul, from Charles Tiner, and it's a solid mix or soul, rock and blues. Opening with Be A Man, Charles Tiner on keys and John Virgin develop the intro. Tiner with rich lead vocal leads the way and fluid guitar riffs by Virgin backed by Jamahi Patterson on drums and Charles Fox on bass for a deluxe opener. Easy blues, Blue Moon really showcases Tiner's soulful vocal work joined by Regina Stewart-Byrd and strong guitar lead by Travis Aldridge. Very cool. Theo Fisher lays in some real nice sax work on Peace By The River, a powerful vocal track featuring Tiner really digging in on enveloping keys. Solid radio track. R&B track, She Made A Move On Me is one of my favorite tracks on the release with a lightly funky rhythm by Tiner on keys, Virgin on guitar and William Bryant on bass. A strong radio track is Don't Be A Fool Too Long with Tiner on lead vocal and keys, backing vocals by Johnetta Jay Williams and Conrad Lee on lead, rhythm and bass guitar. Very nice. Wrapping the release is Put Your Money On Me, an easy shuffle pairing Tiner's vocal and keys with Chris Camp on harmonica, Fox on bass and backing vocals by Sandra Chappel, and Stewart-Byrd. Very nice closer.
