*Rock E. Rollins is a character. See the booklet inside cd for the story. Salvatore Baglio wrote, performed and produced this record along with Ducky Carlisle, Marty Richards, Brad Hallen. Sal Baglio is a charter member of The Stompers.
This CD has nothing to do with 21st century post-modernism. It’s classic power pop! In effect this is a solo album by Sal Baglio, (Rock’s alter ego), as he writes, produces, plays all the guitars and does all the vocals. The only thing he doesn’t do is bass and drums.
...strikes gold with the third song ‘God Knows’, an excellent power pop ballad with banks of jangly guitars and harmony drenched vocals. The next song, ‘Almost September’, is even better, an epic ballad with terrific, memorable hooks and heartfelt vocals.
