Sounds About Right
Gary Fields releases a beautiful, soulful voice that comes straight from the heart on his album, Sounds About Right. It has that classic nightclub sound taking aim at greats like Frank Sinatra. Though he's no member of the Rat Pack, Fields proves he's got a great voice that is controlled. The mood is kind of lonesome and establishes a closed door performance with the listener with coats of melancholy, but the deliverance from Fields is priceless. He makes dark tones unassociated with the grim as the music may be soft and slow, but really speaks to us.
The lyrics are first hand accounts that take us on average journeys that normal people can relate to. The easily related topics in the songs contain inspirational lyrics that can be surprisingly uplifting without being depressing in the slow methodic tempos and rhythms. Fields paints a vivid picture in our minds with his seductive voice in each song. Sounds About Right coasts along smoothly and cool as Fields's voice unfurls, sharing with us everything. He displays excellent rises and falls and does it with such ease.
Sounds About Right is a confident set of blues tracks that has undertones of motivation. Fields bares his soul without getting mushy on us. We enter his mind in every song and are revealed to ordinary visuals of story telling through songs that subtly become stunning. The temperate and soothing sounds filter out and release a calming satisfaction over us. Gary Fields's slow pacing shows us a frame by frame unequivocal series of snapshots of frozen tender moments in time.
