Music reviews of Influence

Music Review: Some things just get better with time....
Rating: 5 Stars

I hadn't realized that Shaw and Blades were still recording together, but was extremely happy to find out that they were! Shaw's awe-inspiring guitar skills and Blades' smooth as honey vocals breathe new life into some of the best songs ever written. I actually think that they improved on Seals and Crofts 'Summer Breeze' and Orleans 'Dance With Me'. The one song that I would have loved to have heard them do after hearing 'Sound of Silence' and 'I am a Rock' is the 'The Boxer'.

Both of these guys--especially Blades' vocals--just get better with time!

Description of Influence

Legendary STYX guitarist Tommy Shaw and former NIGHT RANGER and DAMN YANKEE frontman Jack Blades team up again for their second venture on INFLUENCE. INFLUENCE is also the first CD release coming out on the new created VH1 Classic Records label. From Tommy Shaw, on the making of INFLUENCE: 'This album has been years in the making. The recording process didn't take years, but the concept had been looming in our conversations for years. From the day Jack Blades showed up on my doorstep, we discovered our chemistry as writers almost immediately. We became best friends as a result of the music and the experiences we had because of it.' ' After two albums and two world tours with Damn Yankees, we decided to do our first Shaw Blades album, Hallucination. The album was a departure from Damn Yankees that it was more acoustic in nature, not nearly as heavy and more organically produced.' 'On INFLUENCE, we went song by song; some we held very close to the original version, while on others we departed from the familiar arrangements and made them our own.'
