5/6/2009 - CD Review "Gypsy Soul" - Guitars and Life
blog, Kent, England
So very well worth checking out. This is a great
example of a bunch of more mature rockers who have
broken out from the 9 - 5 rut and show the rest of us
what can be done. Production is excellent as well. Just
going to say it again - The Choice is just a stunning song
and performance.
