Excellent Songwriting - A Winner
author: RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team
"Wake Up The Dead" by Neil Robertson is an excellent acoustic-based adult rock CD. Neil's songwriting is at the front of the list of the many admirable qualities of this CD. Neil's lyrics are clever and relevant, and his melodies are memorable and catchy. The musicianship and Neil's vocals are very good on this CD, and the band is tight. Furthermore, the production is clean, and well-suited for Neil's songwriting style, nicely mixing rock, pop and folk. “Rocking Down My Road” builds to a memorable, harmony-filled chorus, and features excellent lyrics. “Goodness Gracious” effectively adds harmonica and banjo to the mix to give the song more depth. “Change The World” is one of our favorite tracks, with relevant lyrics and an excellent build from acoustic-grooved verses to a harmony and hook-filled chorus. If you enjoy folk rock singer-songwriters, you'll enjoy this excellent CD.
