BrokenNess
has it altogether, there is NOT one aspect
of this cd that deserves a negative
response. No matter where you go, BrokenNess
is there. And now Muzik
reviewz has the distinct pleasure
and honor of reviewing the BrokenNess
'ICU in Dandylions'
CD.
When you mix spectacular A1 vocals with
superb instrumental musicians in the
business and excellent written material,
produced and engineered, it is no wonder you
end up with hot hot music like the BrokenNess
'ICU in Dandylions'
CD.
It doesn't matter what your musical
preferences are, all listeners will love
this cd and you will not be able to put it
down, its one of those cd's that the more
you listen-the more you crave it.
Now lets get into the musicians behind BrokenNess,
which we are talking about some of the
finest and they are: Regan Barger -
provides the lead vocals, guitars, keys and
percussion for BrokenNess of which Barger
possesses a voice that is enhanced with wid e
level ranges from both ends of the vocal
spectrum. His professional talent as an
singer/musician/writer/performer mixed with
the excellent material of 'ICU in
Dandylions'
can put a smile on your heart and yet at the
same time cause you to shed a tear. That is
how heartfelt this music is....... Ray
Hartman brings to BrokenNess his groovin'
bass expertise, providing that in-the-pocket
right on bass playing, vocals and keyboards.
Excellent work Ray!!........ Dane Estepa
provides the solid-in the pocket drum action
beats, percussion and vocals of BrokenNess.
This group has the most spectacular dynamics
I have ever seen, this is what BrokenNess
is all about.
With additional musicians: Chris
Lund - 12 string acoustic guitar. Barry
Torrence - Keyboards/Organ. Dave Burr -
keyboards. Todd Ensminger - loops/marching
snare drum. Jay Mabin - harmonica. Gary
Shellheimer - Congas. Dave Ensminger -
Backup vocals/keyboards.
To name just a few, otherwise I would be
listing the whole CD as my favorite: 'Mr.
Indecision' will start you off loving
this group...'Junkie' along with
everything else has some rich keyboard
action... 'Selfish Sadness' has a hot
harmonica that got my attention real
quick...'Grain of Sand' shows some
awesome love for a child...'Look at Me'
was one of my favs, gave me chills and tears
all at the same time...'The Ocean makes
her Cry (Tara)' has those beatle
overtones with a BrokenNess kick...'In a
Song' has a spectacular and loving end.
Pay attention - you'll hear the love...'ICU
in Dandylions' will touch your heart and
soul, the vocals and music is packed full of
love.
