Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2016 01:43:39 -0400 From: Salvatore Compoccia <compoccia@aol.com> Subject: Re: Barry's New Single ll give it a chance, but my first thought is that the song sounds like something you hear on Barry's rejected solo album from 20 years ago. Has that sound and style. Being nitpicky here, but it was closer to 30 years ago; 1988, I believe. My how time flies when you’re having fun. Doug Yes, sorry 30 years ago. I'll attribute that mistake to my poor math and perhaps me subconsciously not wanting to believe it has actually been 30 years!!! Sal Salvatore Compoccia compoccia@aol.com Back to top

I think it's considerably stronger than tracks such as dr mann, underworld, Great ghost and other stuff since TIWICI. It has a very strong hook. I think the lyrics are clever and subtle and whilst I know that Barry's voice is not what it once was, he sure uses it very very well and I really like the harmonies. I also am very impressed by the guitar phrases (is that Steve?) And the keyboard. Very excited about this project. Kilburn Towers. Back to top

What was I thinking bringing up another song title to illustrate my point. Silly me! After all, the board is in danger of an over abundance of topics/posts. I'll refrain from mentioning any other song titles in my posts until the ban has been lifted. Keep me posted!
