"River" Reviewed in Good Times Magazine 4-6-04
by Dan Brown
"There''s no way you can listen to this record and not walk away believing that Vince Donohue is great writer of love songs. His new disc River is a very polished collection of soft rock love vignettes built on a foundation of passion and deep emotion.
"The pains of unrequited love are felt from the start with "Does He Sing To You," where Vince asks the target of his affection. "Does he sing to you? Does he tell you that you''re beautiful"? The talking a girl into leaving her boyfriend for him theme returns in "Hey Sarah," Vince urges the unfulfilled young lady to run to him and not look back.
The music might best be described as romantic, and the easy listening melodies sometimes even bring the sound to the brink of the ethereal. If a guy is bringing a girl home with the intention of making a move, this cd will help enhance the mood and increase you''re scoring odds.
"River''s strongest work is track seven, where Donohue reduces all of the complications of the boy meets girl experience into a three and a half minute summation of voice and acoustic guitar with "I''ll Wait For You".
"A full listen to River would lead one to believe that Vince Donohue wants to fill the world with silly love songs.

A mix of heart-felt ballads and high-energy rock songs, Vince''s music has been described as Duncan Sheik meets David Gray, with shades of Peter Gabriel and Squeeze. Hard-hitting rock songs combine elements of funk and blues with stomping rock grooves. Songs like "River", with a shifting 7/8 to 4/4 time signature, take the listener through unexpected turns. Ballads like "Even While I Sleep" punctuate the listening experience with poignant honesty.
