Title: My favorite of 2006
Product review: Bernard Fanning's solo CD is the happiest surprise of the year. After hearing a track on Paste Magazine's CD sampler, I picked this up, hoping the rest would sound as good. They didn't. They sound better. Tchad Blake's production provides a warmth reminiscent of 1970s vinyl, and Fanning's songs, while similar to songs of 30 years ago, have a timeless quality all their own. "Sleeping Rough" would be a hit on AOR radio today, if only there were stations gutsy enough to play new artists. Every song is great. Easily my favorite CD of the year.
