Good, but ...

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I really like Power Pop, but it is a retro style that practically never moves into new musical territory. Ray Paul was quite popular in the Boston area in late 70s, but he never had a national hit. His major problem is that his studio tracks sound sterile due to overproduction. He is joined by Emitt Rhodes on the new recording "Some Sing, Some Dance," which starts off great, but the lead guitar just sounds too polished to me. I wish he would have cranked up his amp and let it rip. I'm surprised it doesn't sound better, since Rhodes engineered the track too. The live cover of "Telegram Sam" sounds great and that sound is what's missing in his studio recordings."
