Title: Not up to par
Review: I have always enjoyed Rick Springfield's music. It weighs in somewhere between bubble gum pop and rock. But it's catchy and enjoyable. With his latest, I just can not connect with many of the songs. A lot of the material on this cd sounds like some kind of garage noise rather than the mature and thoughtful sounds I've grown accustomed to from him. Even some of the more "enjoyable"tracks (although I use the term pretty loosely) like Perfect and Beautiful You are hard to listen to because of the noise of the guitars and sometimes inaudible words Rick tries to sing over all the commotion. If you want to hear some quality newer stuff from Mr. Springfield, check out his last release "Karma" which is very worthy, fun, quality music.
