Maybe the name Jerry G. Hludzik doesn't ring a bell to you.
He's one of the founder members of the classic AOR band DAKOTA, and has been releasing solo albums from time to time on his own small label.
This recent effort features the influence of his old band in the background, but the overall style is AORish classic american rock.
"Hole In My Pocket" sounds a lot like DAKOTA, "On A Day Like Today" is like a NELSON song in the 21st century, and "One From The Heart" a fantastic AOR-ballad (and maybe the best song on offer here) much in the vein of NIGHT RANGER's acoustic 80's songs. Awesome.
This is a solid piece of music, very well homemade produced & engineered, featuring some of finest songwriting heard in a long time.
Usually I don't post new albums here, but this is an indie release and deserves to be promoted.
