Review of the Stephen Stills CD titled Stephen Stills
The exceptionally talented Rock artist Stephen Stills has released him CD entitled Stephen Stills. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Stephen Stills fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Stephen Stills Stephen Stills’s artistic excellence is on full display as Stills has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be him best work to date.
The CD opens with a great track, Love The One You’re With, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It’s a really nice track.
Stephen Stills is a pleasantly varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly talented artist. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are him own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.
If you’re a Stephen Stills fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don’t even have to be a fan of Stills, or even Rock to know is good. This is just good music. Period.
While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - Do For The Others, track 4 - Old Times Good Times, and track 10 - We Are Not Helpless
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Love The One You’re With. This is a great track!
