MP3 RICHIE CANNADAY - Think About Thinking
8 MP3 Songs
POP: Folky Pop, ROCK: Folk Rock
Details:
"Think About Thinking", the debut CD from 18 year old newcomer Richie Cannaday, is an inspired blend of alternative bluegrass and acoustic rock. Richie is joined by many eclectic guests, most notably his father, banjo virtuoso David Cannaday, who also sports producer’s and joint writer’s credits. Both father and son shine in sticking to what they do best, which creates a sound that spans across generations of appeal. From the Ozark Mountain Daredevils-inspired funk of "Hitchhiker" to the sweetly mean-spirited fun of "Raindrop," the album reinvents its sound from track to track.
The thing that doesn’t change throughout the journey, though, is Richie, whose tenor has been compared to that of Ben Folds. His lyrics almost always reflect the viewpoint of the young and lovelorn. For example, "Getaway," the album’s catchy opener, tells a story of teenage love’s alienation without ever sounding like an exercise in whining. On the other end of the scale, there’s the raucous bluegrass jam, "Kaibe’s Day in the Sun," in which young Cannaday tells of revenge after being jilted. The laid-back jazz of "Love Me Too", featuring Wes Chappel on an airy, sultry, flute, is just simple enough to remind anyone of the first time they fell in love.
The glue that holds it all together, however, is that prevailing sense of fun. From start to finish, "Think About Thinking," is a toe-tapping, hand-clapping good time. The only song to abandon that fun and step into more serious territory is "Wonder Why", the centerpiece track that supplies the album’s title lyric. The song is, in effect, the new generation’s "Give Peace a Chance", with its simple yet thought-provoking stance on war and hatred. "Wonder Why" was honored as one of CITY Magazine’s ten best recordings of the year 2000.
