Classic rock icons 'Deep Purple', 'Judas Priest' and 'Iron Maiden' set the standard for hardrock vocalists. This CD from 'Rider' features John West continuing the tradition of Ian Gillan and Glen Hughes of 'Deep Purple', Rob Halford of 'Judas Priest' and Bruce Dickinson of 'Iron Maiden'. There is no question that John can rock! He is a stunning singer who has the ability to raise the hair on the back of your neck with his extraordinary range, muscular vocal power, great vibrato and especially his dramatic endings. But, he's equally at home singing songs that are more bluesy or have a stronger R&B feel or are of a pop ballad style. Yes, he WILL rock you, but, if you like power ballads he has the sensitivity and expressive phrasing to also melt your heart. This is a CD , written by David Thompson, of 10 songs that range from hardrock and funk to R&B flavored ballads and romantic pop. With themes as diverse as everyday relationships and regrets to adventure mystery and science fiction to blues and out on the road, good time rock and roll this CD covers a wide range of interests, stories and emotions.
