"Euclid Beach Band was one of the early efforts of singer-songwriter Pete Hewlett. His collaboration with Eric Carmen and Rich Reising took the Cleveland-Pittsburgh sound to a unique level for that era. Hewlett's enormous talent and charisma carried him on to work with Carly Simon, his own band, Novo Combo, with Santana drummer Mike Schrieve, and later a stint with Billy Joel.This CD allows you to hear Hewlett's raw talent before he honed his voice into the rich musical instrument it is today."

"This CD runs the gamut of the Cleveland experience with songs ranging from "There's No Surf in Cleveland" to the earthy "Hard To Say Goodbye." Pete Hewlett and Rich Reising join with Eric Carmen on production to give you the best of Cleveland. It rocks!"
