"Maybe I'm
right, maybe I'm wrong -- maybe this is just another pop song..."
If you live in Chicago or Holland, this is not "just another
pop song" collection. This is an anthology of songs you've
heard constantly on the radio for the last five years from one
of the best songwriters, singers and performers in rock'n'roll.
After four indie releases of his band, The Bad Examples, plus
his solo work, it is time to present to the world an overview
of the melodies, lyrics and the sincerely honest voice of Ralph
Covert.
This includes
the rockers that get the guys and girls dancing such as the radio
hits "Not Dead Yet" and "Any Twisted Thing." It includes the poignant
ballads that you play again and again at home. And it includes
some of the best popsongs ever produced.
When Goldmine
named The Bad Examples' Bad Is Beautiful one of the 50
best American power pop albums of all-time, they hadn't heard
this collection yet. One of the band's most popular rockers, "Let
Her Go," finally makes its recorded debut here. From the independent
film, "The Reunion," which features Ralph Covert in a speaking
and singing role, comes the beautiful title theme. "Shades Of
Grey," is presented in a slightly harder version than the original.
The 16-page
booklet contains the lyrics to every song on the album, several
printed for the first time. An illustrated discography and liner
notes by Ralph Covert are also included. This collection will
not disappoint any fan of melodic pop, anywhere in the world.
