I finally hooked up with Cambridge IV today and he had his father's CD's in tow. I told him to give one of the copies he gave me to a young woman eating lunch next to us. She was startled that she got something free, hope she enjoys it.
This is one fantastic cd! The packaging, the music speaks volumes. I can now understand why my brother labored and suffered for so long, it took time for he and Jessica to meet, but when they did the magic followed. Frankly, his lyrics were made for her voice. Steven Nelson did a wonderful job also, but it's Jessica's singing and piano playing that really shines on this cd. My brother's lone vocal track tells of the pain, frustration and finally redemption he has achieved with his music. There is no doubt about Cambridge III's songwriting talent. He was the right person at the right time meeting these people.
To hear this music that had been written on old envelopes and torn paper fiinally being put on recorded media is a testament to my brother's will and determination. If people give this work have a chance it will do very, very well.
My brother and the others involved in this project came of age and there's no going back.
