Highlights:
Castaway
If you're like me, you don't know or remember a lot about Greg Kihn. "The Breakup Song (They Don’t Write ‘em Like that Anymore” and “Jeopardy.” Love the first one; despise the second (Thanks, Weird Al!).
Wasn’t expecting much. The first track, Castaway, blew me away from the opening guitar! At 2:47 it is a perfect hard rock song. I bought it to download because it isn’t on any of his compilation albums.
Requisite 80s cover: The Yardbirds’s “For Your Love”
OMG. My new hero. Greg Kihn is literally, and literally rock’s Renaissance Man. Songwriter, guitarist, author, editor!
1. Castaway. 2:47 Awesome opening track. Lovely guitar.
2. Desire Me. Bluesy
3. Anna Belle Lee. Wow. Lovely.
4. Things to Come
5. Small Change. Yeah.
6. The Only Dance There Is
7. The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance – Love the fact that he covered this Burt Bacharach/Hal David movie classic. FUN.
8. Serenade Her
9. Night After Night
10. For Your Love Nice. Polite.
Snag the highlight.
