The late Brett Walker has recorded one of the most adorable pure AOR albums in history, the critically acclaimed ‘Nevertheless’ in 1994. But he started his passion for this genre many years ago.
At his twenties, Brett moved to L.A to play in Tahnee Cain’s band and Nick Gilder among other well respected artists. At the same time, becoming a professional songwriter, Brett wrote two charting singles; one for Jimi Jamison (‘Taste Of Love’) and the other for Alias: the classic ‘Waiting For Love’, which entered the Top 10 chart.
At the end of the Eighties Brett Walker formed together with drummer Tommy ‘Mugs’ Cain (Journey’s Jonathan Cain brother) the “Person 2 Person” project. In fact, this name was given to the demo tape of the band – looking forward to a record deal – distributed hand-to-hand, ‘person-to-person’.
Now 2023 MelodicRock Classics is releasing “PERSON TO PERSON – The Complete Recordings“, a 2-CD featuring all the project original studio recordings plus Live takes, Alternative Mixes and Demos. All remastered obtaining a very good sound quality.
Person To Person original and only band promo shot was black & white. For this CD release the picture was modified using new AI colouring technology to make an accurate portrait of the band just as they were ready to launch.
This is pure late ’80s / early ’90s AOR with elegant arrangements and pure class performances.
A must for fans of the genre.
