Heart of the Matter
2 stars A light affair this one, with very capable musicians serving a not entirely worthy purpose. We find misses and hits alike, and of a very varied nature:

The opener, a despicable pop song, coming from some prehistoric form of pop that doesn't dare to say its name, and no one wants even to remember. By charging this hedious thing with an adjective like "poor", one will be conceding too much.

But there are some shots hitting the target, anyway. Those will be the acoustic songs, where Roy's unique voice and phrasing really shine, like "I'm In Love With You", and some rocker in a Thin Lizzy vein, like "Ten Years Ago".

Even so, too uneven to be good.

Heart of the Matter | 2/5 |
