Eric Hutchinson: Pure Fiction

Here is a quick music review for a change.  Something I've been listening to and loving lately.

Every song on this album is a catchy hit-worthy tune with heartfelt lyrics and melodies that seem specifically designed to put a big smile on your face.  I honestly love every minute of this album.  These are optimistic songs that sound oddly familiar the first time you hear them and sound like sweet home cooking the hundredth time.



And there's not just radio friendly toe tappers.  Though songs like "Tell The World" and "Forever" could chart in any top 40 list from the last fifty years, Eric returns to his RnB sound (and lyrics) for "Love Like You" and his singer-song writer sound for the two acoustic jams that end the record.  There's not a dull moment among them.

If there's one criticism, it's that the songs are too short and there's not enough of them.
