The Longest Road

Here's 10 tasty commercial rock songs from the debut group on the Wave Records label that Billy Smiley's helped start up. Smiley produced this effort and, like the Twenty/ 20 record - "Altered" - it sounds quite a bit like Whiteheart. There's some big hints at flesh and blood coming through from the artist, but the production is sssssslick for the most part. The two rockers: "21 Reasons", and "The Other Side" are the two brightest moments...where the band cuts loose a little and turns the guitars up.
