Gino Vannelli Powerful People Pop Music CD Review

I can describe the latest release from Pop sensation Gino Vannelli for you with just one word… Outstanding!

Unfortunately, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Powerful People. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Powerful People is a pleasantly varied, mix of 9 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly talented artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are him own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They’re all here.

Powerful People is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Pop fan.

While the entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 3 – Son Of A New York Gun, track 8 – The Work Verse, and track 9 – Poor Happy Jimmy (Tribute to Jim Croce).

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – People Gotta Move. Outstanding!
