"Good to Get Away" by Larry Killip

"Good to Get Away" is an adult rock "must have" CD by Larry Killip. This is a masterful work that shows the professional quality work that can be done without a big-label contract. The tracks on this CD reflect Larry's excellent songwriting ability - very melodic songs with unpredictable yet enjoyable chord progressions, effective builds to memorable choruses, and thoughtful and thought-provoking lyrics. Add to this, Larry's excellent musicianship and distinctive voice, along with some tasteful sax fills and you have a masterful work. The recording quality and production are excellent as well. The music is reminiscent of The Beatles and especially Paul McCartney. The title track is a very memorable and thought-provoking song with a catchy guitar melody and keyboard countermelody in the verses that leads to a well-resolved chorus. "Beautiful Song" is very appropriately titled, and will stick in your head throughout the day, showing the power of the melodic and memorable chorus. Similar comments for "In Blue Daze." We can go on and on raving about this CD. If you enjoy adult rock or simply want to hear a masterful songwriter and very talented performer at work, you will enjoy this CD.
