Comments: A release of demos from 1991. No songwriting credits are
given, but the liner notes imply everything is by Hughes/Downes. Downes
himself describes the music as "aimed at ["a Michael Bolton-type vein"],
but with more of a Stevie Wonder/Marvin Gaye-style soul influence."
There's some nice material here, if you like AOR with soul and hard rock
influences, but that these are just demos shows with some rough vocals
and there's only so much you can do with a Synclavier...
