Atom Stone - Take Me To The Fire (CD digipak)

ATOM STONE from New York is a project of the multi-instrumentalist and vocalist by the same name. His voice has got certain Steve Perry and Lou Gramm moments. Together with illustrous guests like Paul Taylor (keys, WINGER), Dan Tracey (g/b/d, ALAN PARSONS) or Jimi Bell (g, HOUSE OF LORDS, AUTOGRAPH) he creates a wonderful and lots of good vibes spreading album full of shiny hooklines and sparkling arrangements. Somehow reminiscent of the power pop/rock of 7TH HEAVEN ("Driving Back To You") and JOHNNY LIMA ("Take Me To The Fire"). It's very well-produced, too. Cool record! (MS)
