Steve Oliver - 3D

Several up-tempo numbers are contained on this project including the outstanding Wings of Spring. This song will make you smile as Oliver’s vocalese gives lift to an energized guitar melody. The upbeat percussion soars as the piano (Schuman) dances its way through this number. Chips & Salsa, the piquant-flavored, first radio single off the disc, smacks with staccatoed guitar stylings, strong piano lines and spiced-up percussion. Infused with a zesty hook, it’ll keep you craving more! Oh Yeah, continues the vibe with world music gusto and then In the Shade of Cool, Oliver casts the hue of electric guitar and reminds me of the Larry Carlton sound.
