I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Facination, from Walter Egan, and it's a straight ahead rocker. Opening with, I'm With The Girl, Egan continues his legacy of rock standard country fused songs. With his alt country voice and his strong musical sensibility, he's right on track. Solid opener. Miss Pamela, a pop rocker should get strong radio airplay with it's uptempo rhythm and catchy melody about historic super groopie Pamela Des Barres. With a cool doubled vocal lead, Yesterday Forever & Today is one of my favorites on the release. It's smiple rhythm and strong melody really hits dead center. Country flavored, Fading Love is another of my favorites with it's total country (not pop country) attitude. With it's simple, honest approach to music, this track is terrific. Early rock styling and a bit of country gives Treat Me Nice a nostalgic feel. It's early country/rock slant gives it real appeal for me. Wrapping the release is Hell I Know It's Over, a contemplative track with minimal, yet interwoven instrumentation and vocals. This is a solid closer for a real interesting release.
