On the Beach
Genre: Smooth Rock
4 out of 5
Highlights:
On the Beach
I’m always a bit nervous when I get up early on a Saturday morning and open up Sonos, connect to my Listening Post playlist, adjust the sound level so I don’t a) blast it to the point of waking anyone sleeping in or b) play it loud enough that my son realizes I’m awake and decide to force me to look at his renderings in his Minecraft Steven Universe Resource Pack.
No reason to worry on either counts with the next album in the cue.
On the Beach is one of the most aptly titled records I’ve come across.
I still can’t stand Rea’s voice. That gravel doesn’t suit the gentle watch-the-waves musical stylings. But, I got past it.
This was pleasant.
