Album Notes

Tim Ratcliff and Ken Bailey are long-time collaborators who work out of a 24 track studio. Having over 100 songs to their credit, they work mainly in the Rock/Blues veins, but don't have any hard-set rules.
Many of the lyrics seethe with working-class angst, which Tim Ratcliff states "We came by honestly".
They try to stay away from the synth-laiden, assembly line 80's sound, preferring a more basic gutiar-lead-bass-drums-keys sound, the basis of Rock and Roll. The team continues to write and record on a regular basis, and their website can be found at www.westfieldrecording.com. They also have a internet radio station.

REVIEWS

I like the original sound
author: Joe Bliss
The songs on the CD aren't like other music I have heard. The recording itself could be a lot better, but I really like the melodies and guitar work on this.
