Norm...It is an interesting solo release by Robert. Normally I'm quite a critic of Jason Scheff's vocals but I thought he nailed the Gerry Beckley/Carl Wilson-esque vocals on <i>Watching the Time Go By</i> far better than he's ever nailed trying to sound like Peter Cetera. <br /><br />I'd rank this and S&P as Lamm's two best solo releases-- no contest! None of his other solo material compares. I was a little surprised/disappointed that he didn't include material from his other solo albums. I would have loved to have heard <i>Murder on Me</i> or <i>When Will the World be Like Lovers</i> from <i>Life Is Good In My Neighbourhood</i> or <i>Love of My Life</i> from <i>In My Head</i>. I wouldn't have minded hearing <i>Skinny Boy</i> for that matter, but I'm not sure that Robert still has the range/chops to tackle that one (at least not in its original form). His voice has deepened, perhaps a bit too much to successfully pull off <i>Skinny Boy</i> without some substantial changes in key/arrangement.Perplexiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09971805688658949769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12331855.post-42050239752238551572010-07-30T04:24:55.508-04:002010-07-30T04:24:55.508-04:00Interesting.

He was always the 'quite one' in Chicago who wrote some great tunes but was never the focal point of the band.music obsessivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16191742084494035205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12331855.post-36447608094028352722010-07-29T10:09:07.978-04:002010-07-29T10:09:07.978-04:00I love CHICAGO and hope LEAP OF FAITH becomes avai...I love CHICAGO and hope LEAP OF FAITH becomes available on iTunes or one of the other music sites.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04546161337366365635noreply@blogger.com
