Album Notes

1. DANCE WITH ME BABY
Disco Pop

2. WHEN I FIRST SAW YOU
"You were walkin' along the boardwalk
Suntanned legs, hair blowin' in the breeze..."
-Romantic ballad about love at first sight

3. ESCAPE FROM DEVIL'S ISLAND
"There's no escape from Devil's Island, just the sharks and the sea
And if they catch you and bring you back, it's the lash and the guillotine"
-Epic adventure song about a man who tries to escape from Devil's Island. Does he make it? A fast-paced, action-packed thriller

4. DOWN IN THE DUMPS AGAIN
"even my dog is on strike"
-I did some baritone back-up vocals on this Blues song and there's some sunshine on the horizon

5. I DON'T CARE ABOUT ALICE
A Calypso song about Alice

6. SHAKE IT UP
Heavy Groove Pop

7. NATALIE
Alternative Rock like slow adrenaline. One man's fantasy about the lovely neighbour who lives in the apartment across the street

8. BLUE SMOKE, BLACK COFFEE, AND THE SPOTLIGHT
"My baby works the late-night shift at the infirmary
And I play trumpet in the bar across the street
Oh I love the blue smoke, the black coffee and the spotlight
The people drinkin', the glasses clinkin' in the night..."
-Atmospheric Blues Performance with bar fight included

9. LOUD, FAST, AND OUT OF CONTROL
"Yeah I was born in a storm in a haunted house, high up on a hill
I got the hands of a strangler, the mind of a mangler and a heart that won't keep still
And when I ride into town on my big machine there's riots wherever I go
Cause I'm loud, fast, and out of control"
-Rock. Frankenstein rides a motorcycle and he's gaining speed!

10. IN YOUR FACE
"The doorman tried to stop me
I told him "Step aside"
I didn't tell him again, I just hit him between the eyes"
-Rock / Urban. Don't jive this guy, he takes care of business

11. DO YOU LOVE ME
"Or do you say the same words to somebody else
Do you give your body to him
Do the fires burn bright, do the nights get hot
When the sky grows dim"
-A sweet strong ballad about the doubts and tribulations of love

12. SOSSALITA
"She dances in the moonlight, in hot rooms with red lights
She dances for the sailors in the inn by the river
She kicks her long legs and she throws back her hair
She smiles my way and I fall off my chair"
-Bouncy South American rhythm song about a young man who is in love with a beautiful dancing girl

13. SLEEP LITTLE PRINCESS
"Peppermint lollipops, teddy bears
Eyes that see magic everywhere..."
-Operatic Duet with the famous Laurie Gordon. Lullaby. Hauntingly sweet

REVIEWS

Shake it up Rocks!!!
author: Gordie Parsons
I really enjoyed "shake it up". It made me want to get up and dance. It could be a great hit in the gay world, up there with Madonna and Kylie.

author: Barbara Shearing
This cd moves you to the point of wanting to sway to the beat. Disco, calypso,and country rock blend in to the mellow songs the artist shares with us. It is definitely a party favourite in this fishing village of Matapedia.
