Billy Cobham Crosswinds Rock Music CD Review
The exceptionally talented Rock artist Billy Cobham has released him CD entitled Crosswinds. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Billy Cobham fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Crosswinds Billy Cobham’s artistic excellence is on full display as Cobham has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be him best work to date.
Billy Cobham has been a super star in the Rock genre for quite a while now and Crosswinds is an excellent illustration as to why.
Crosswinds is a pleasantly varied, mix of 7 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly outstanding artist. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly 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.
If you’re a Billy Cobham fan, or just a fan of Rock music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.
While this entire album is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 – Savannah The Serene (II), track 5 – The Pleasant Pheasant, and track 7 – Crosswind.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Spanish Moss (I). Good stuff!
