Negative Positive
Title: Substandard effort after his spectacular first outing
Review: After the truly outstanding "Sons of Sommerled", Steve McDonald's first album, I was expecting more electrifying percussion work, clever and innovative rhythms and instrument use, and soul-wrenching, heartfelt lyrics. I was greatly disappointed. Aside from a few moments of genius, this album wanders aimlessly down a road of sentimentalism and unimaginative musical rambling. Here's hoping Steve recaptures the magic of "Sons of Sommerled" on his third album, which I still highly anticipate and look forward to.
