Album Notes

Why Time Traveler? Because it took me so long to make it. By the time we got near the end I had gone through so many changes it was like I morphed into a different person. I thought of the album title, then I wrote the song.

Working Title: Like they do in the movie business when they can't decide on a name. Uptempo backbeat, two part harmony and guitar hook.
What's good for me: Led Zeppelin on a sugar high.
Lay Me Down: Bouncy midtempo PopRocker with featured vocal arrangement.
Linda Ann: A 'help Me Rhonda' song with all acoustic guitars, layered harmonies and McCartney bass line.
Fountain of love: We loaded everything including the kitchen sink into this one. Sounds like a country song, but it's really a love song.
Leap of Faith: I came the closest I've ever come to losing my mind when I wrote this. PS: I never did take that plunge.
Your Loving Heart: Obvious heavy 60's influence, the jingle jangle 12-string electric gives it away.
Ain't Goin' Back: Whirlwind piano and organ with 'Band of Gypsies' backup and me rapping (all 11 words). Huh?
When We're Gone: All acoustic but outta' control, hey where's the sitar?
Evening Flower: A slow dance grove with vocal embellishment toward the end. Yes, another love song...... you gotta problem with that?
Time Traveler: Although I didn't realize it at the time, this one was probably influenced by Sam Cooke's "Keep Movin' on". Dig it if you haven't already.

Well that about says all there is to say, time to get goin'. - TT

REVIEWS

Poetry in motion !
author: Laura T Lynch of Kweevak.com
                            
Paul’s music is a blend of pop, classic rock and Americana. The diverse scope of sounds found on this eleven-track collection range from a mid sixty's vibe to contemporary. Production is crisp and clean and Paul is competent on guitars, bass and percussion. Hurst alone is able to create songs that are rich and full sounding. His music includes up tempo beats, dueling harmonies and plenty of guitar hooks. His well-constructed lyrics are about relationships and self-reflection. Paul states that "it took me so long to make Time Traveler that by the time we got near the end I had gone through so many changes it was like I morphed into a different person". The CD reflects maturity, growth and craftsmanship. 'Working Title' is the spirited opening track with souring guitar work and fine vocal blends. 'Linda Ann' echoes of the Beach Boys in construction and layered vocals. A cool wavy bass line melds with acoustic guitars and a catchy hook line. 'Your Loving Heart' features both six and twelve string electric guitars with a sixties flair, poetic lyrics and soft solid percussion. Time Traveler is poetry in motion.
