Fly High Brave Dreamers - Chris & Carla

Advantages: Quality songs, exciting tracks
Disadvantages: Couple of not so good tracks

...Those of you who have read others in my opinion repertoire will know I'm a big Chris de Burgh fan. Sure – I may be quite young compared to the general population of Chris' fan base, but I enjoy his music, and in the end that's all that matters. He has a silky smooth and soothing voice, and the beautifully conceived lyrics can't fail to stir something in your heart and mind. It may not be to everyone's tastes, but that doesn't stop it being somewhat delectable in its style and construction, to me at least. Flying Colours, as far as I know, is Chris' tenth album, the last one he released before he released the wonderful 'Very Best Of' compilation 'Spark To A Flame' in 1989.

Advantages: Lengthy? Sexy. Vocals are great.
Disadvantages: Too long. Few weak tracks. Syrupy.

But unfortunately you have to sift through lots of skits and filler tracks in order to get to the good stuff. The album itself. "Case Of The Ex" saw Mya get back into the music scene with a kick. A hot lead single that charted respectably. "That's Why I Wanna Fight" is another really hot track that sees Mya's vocals saunter and slide and work with the music to create a fabulous song that is great to dance to. "Again & Again" "Ride & Shake" "Takin' Me Over - (featuring Left Eye)" are dance tracks. Less... Read review

Advantages: good song
Disadvantages: rubbish high pitched singing

...is this typical of supertramp one of those hage 1970s rock acts when all the band members are crusty types with beards who park their fags in the strings on machine head whilst picking out a dreamy solo. Yep these are crustys. Dreamer is an organ driven song. a very catchy tune. with high pitched vocals. You'll find it on 70's various compillations and Im sure it has paid for a nice little nestegg for the crusty supertramp people. The lyrics dont make you want to punch the air not really very inspiring at all really.... Read review
