Comment:
Robert Avellanet`s 11-track outing gets a place in my listening world
because of providing sonic
elements which might be
sugary and sleazy by some
other artists with
credibility and powerful inner impetus. More
profoundly, it is a quite straightforward pop music with the elements
of funk and soul. However,
the central track on it is
certainly The One And
Only, one could feel its
axial position while
listening to these 42 minutes for many times in a row and
while getting to it again.
It does have enough strength
to hover and tower and find out a slot in one`s heart. Lyrically the
outing is predominantly
about love, the fact which
is obviously not surprising at all due
to those softened pads and hopeful audible
seeds /Love
is a journey I would everywhere with you/My
love I found you/My
life is yours I was born for you/I
dream about you/One
day we will stand side by side/.
In a word, it is an issue
where Latin inflected balladry meets Motown inspired soulful music.
Lovely stuff.
