Singer/songwriter Tony Young rocks hard with perceptive takes on contemporary life that have a classic feel without being either derivative or retro.

Singer makes solo debut with a little help from friends

Tony Young, former lead singer of King Cotton, is serving up some country-fried rock with his new CD, With A Little Help From My Friends. His six-song EP is a mix of traditional country and country-tinged pop. The tune "Back in the Day," featuring harmonica, piano and Young's smooth vocals, reminds one of an old John Mellencamp song: "And we were into cars and chasing girls, dreaming dreams, back in the day..."

King Cotton was my favorite Blues band and now I love this CD. My favorite is Love for a Child. I remember seeing you and Liz at Tom Brown Park when yall sang there - 4th of July, and she was about ready to give birth to Cheyenne. I was with my sister Iris and nephew Derrick, who was your pitcher on several baseball teams. Good luck with the cd and the best to your family.

This CD is great! The song love for a child is the best song on the CD! King Cotton was GREAT but I think Tony going solo is going to get him far!
