DownTown Mystic

Better Day (Digital 45)

Review by Gary Hill

This music fits into the fine tradition of classic rock sound. There is a good helping of variety among the three songs here. Yet it all feels like it belongs together. This is the kind of thing that leaves the listener wishing there was more here. Then again, they say you should leave your audience clamoring for more, so that's a good thing. If you like 1970s rock music, you will find plenty to enjoy here.

This review is available in book (paperback and hardcover) form in Music Street Journal: 2024  Volume 4. More information and purchase links can be found at: garyhillauthor.com/Music-Street-Journal-2024.

Track by Track Review
Better Day (Radio Single)
This a no frills rocker with plenty of classic angles at play. It feels like something that would have fit well into the 1970s.
Love Light

Perhaps more alternative rock leaning and less classic in sound, this rocker is another solid one.

Tomorrow’s Clown

A more acoustic based arrangement is on the menu here. This is still a rocking number, even though it has some balladic moments. I like the lyrical rhythm on this. The whole song just oozes cool. It might be my favorite tune here.
