Wondering Why??
author: AZJOHN
I apparently have caught on to Kathy's music late. I have been listening to her music in reverse order. I started with "Unresolved". That CD is fantastic. I am in my second listen to her 10 Doors Down CD. It too is fantastic! I wonder why this CD and Kathy has not obtained greater media attention. Her lyrics are phenomenal, her voice has a great range, the back up musicians are first class and they all perform together tightly and creatively. The production on the CD is clear and highlights vocals, leads, chorus, coda and etc. I am thinking it is rare in today's mainstream productions that all sound the same. This CD is well done and possibly one of the first to produce this level of music creativity with unique lyrics, striking vocals and backup leads from a variety of instruments, in more years than I will admit to experiencing.
This CD is a JOY to listen too. You can play it as loud or as soft as needed. I know each time I listen to it, I will hear new things and obtain new ideas. Kathy's music is about as good as it gets.
