Synopsis

Album Description
With a fresh musical blend the Todd Harrold Band creates a unique personality for Mr. Whatever. "Good For You" distills everything the band does -- funk, improvisation, R&B, smooth jazz -- with a great BIG hook. "Now You Know," the band's single, boasts an old-school R&B groove and virtuoso playing. In a flavor filled twist "Stick Figure" forsakes the serious... for fun. Further, the emotional trials and tribulations facing an unknown artist are explored on "Mr. Whatever," while the vocals in "Go On" search for emotion speculating what happens after death.

"The music on the computer sounds good, but the CD sounds like... distorted or.. I'm not sure, I'm just starting as a musician,but something is wrong with that distortion on the vocals...too bad, they are probably good musicians.. who's that guy who mastered this? oooppsss..."
Heard the Band Live in Chicago

"I heard this band live a few months ago in Chicago and was totaly blown away. I also had a chance to hear some tracks between sets from the original mixes. They seem to be different than what was released by the record company. I would have to agree that the disc sounds cloudy and distorted. Too bad. the stuff I heard in Chicago was on the level of a steely dan record. AAA radio will probably still latch onto it, but it's a shame that very few will get to hear the excellent quality of this band in the studio... What happened? Does this label realize how good a product this band is? I have to say if you can somehow contact the band and get a copy of the original mixes, you would be doing yourself a favor. I plan to to do this myself. I would love to hear these tunes again the way they were recorded....This band is top notch! Good songs and a great recording too, to bad the label had to ruin it.........."
This is definitely GREAT music!

"I listened to the Todd Harrold Band from a friend that was playing the cd in his car. I haven't heard great music in a long time, this really hit the spot! I loved the originality and style of the music. It reminds me of when artists really wrote songs and had a band to play them. And it has a different edge to it that combines pop/jazz/and alternative. I normally listen to Sting, Michael McDonald, and other artist that can actually play an instrument and sing, this guy fits that mold. I hope to see more from this guy because that band has got great potential! I love hearing the first album from new artist too, it makes you feel like part of their vibe and you grow with them. Definitely cool group, thats why I came to your site and bought it. I couldn't find it in the stores! Keep bringing stuff like this and I'll keep coming back."
