Reynold D. Philipsek has released music for over 20 years and with a brand new album, his fans are sure to be anxious to hear what he is offering next.
The album begins with “July” where, along with his fantastic guitar playing, he sings. The song looks for a place where it always feels like July, which in this case means beautiful and warm. The song is basically an introduction to the rest of the album, and once the door opens, it’s 28 minutes of great songs and playing. He mixes up acoustic and electric sounds, while with “Bangkok Sunset” he busts out the metal vibe, brings in a horn section and strings and makes things even more heavier.
If the album cover is somewhat 60’s influenced, that’s on purpose. The liner notes indicate that was his intention, while also bringing back the vibe of French and Italian music. In fact, this sounds like music that needs the perfect movie, and I hope he will be able to find it in order to bring these songs to a visual life.
