while.

XYZ
LETTER TO GOD
Review: This is an amazing c.d. from beginning to end.. I even like this more then any of the past XYZ releases.. This isn't a full reunion.. but it does also have drummer Paul Monroe from the old days.. but now has Sean McNabb (Great White, Quiet Riot,etc) on bass and JK Northrup on guitar.. and this line-up is stellar.. all amazing musicians.. and it shows on every track.. some are hard rockers.. full of melodic choruses, to the slow acoustic tunes, that showcases Terry's raspy voice.. I miss this fun rock n roll.. and if you do too.. make sure you pick up this release..
Booklet: This is a cool cover.. looks to me kinda like what Terry has been going through in the last couple years.. between losing his father, and his son.. and the tornado of emotions from it.. but what do I know.. LOL.. anyway.. it unfolds, and has to 3 pages of thanks.. and lyrics to 2 of the songs.. and some pictures of I'm going to guess his father as a young boy.. Terry when he was young.. and Terry's son.. but like I said before I'm not sure.. There is a great new group picture on the back.. all the guys look great.....
Favorite Song: "Asking" it's one of the slow songs.. and it's just so heart wrenching.. maybe cause Terry told me how it was about his dad.. but it's awesome! "Untied" has the catchiest intro.. I think I also like it cause I've heard it so many time on the website.. I also like the new versions of "Inside Out" and "What keeps me loving you" they both sound great.. but then again, this whole c.d. is awesome..
Least Favorite Song: "Touch the Sky" just isnt having much of an impact on me.. not sure why.. just isnt..
