River was a successful independent group back when “indy” wasn’t cool. After nearly two decades together as a group, Kurt Linn, Paul Marino and Phil Reesnes have performed over 1300 concerts, garnered no less than seven top 5 Inspirational Radio singles and three top 10 hits, performed a movie theme song, and released ten full-length projects. All without a record label. ”We have had label offers and discussions over the years,” says Phil, “and we partnered with a small label for a season. But honestly, I believe God guided our path in a different direction for a specific purpose.” Paul concurs. “We always wanted to be an extension of the local churches, and come along side what they already had in place and serve them,” he says. “We felt we needed the freedom to make those kinds of choices.”Now, more than three years after their last recording, River will release CAUGHT UP IN YOU: Songs of Worship. Featuring ten songs written by Paul (who serves as a writer for Lifeway Worship Music Group), Greg Nelson and Jeremy Johnson, CAUGHT UP IN YOU: Songs of Worship continues to showcase the tight vocal harmonies of the trio, lending their signature sound to dynamic new worship tunes that are already finding their way into church music programs.“God of Every Generation,” the CD’s first radio single, is being used in a Christmas program featuring American Idol finalist, Mandisa. “Leave Everything Behind” has been featured on the CD that accompanied Beth Moore’s Patriarchs Bible study. And “Near The Cross” was featured on a First Look CD sent by Lifeway to over 6500 churches across the country. With this new CD, those same songs have been given River’s unique musical stamp.Other songs on the CD such as “In The Ordinary,” “Unashamed,” and the title cut, show an unusual depth of honesty, featuring lyrics that express deep desires, evoking almost psalm-like qualities.“For nearly 80 years, the church as a whole was more of a praying body than a praising one,” says Paul. “Today, it sometimes seems to be the exact opposite. But I believe there is an in-between stage that we need to experience. Some of the songs on the new CD allow us to praise God, and yet cry out to Him in prayer at the same time. That is a missing element in our corporate worship settings today.”“Near The Cross” is a personal favorite of the guys. “My heart so desires to be constantly aware of the Cross,” says Kurt, “but I realize I don’t abide there near enough.” Phil agrees. “The first two lines of the second verse bring me a great deal of comfort. ‘Near the cross, a trembling soul, love and mercy found me.’ As broken as we are, God continually pursues us. And it is He who found me, not me who found Him.” River has always been known for their poignant songs. Industry veteran and long-time radio promoter Wendell Gafford of Creative Promotions says that River made in-roads for many artists early on. “River was one of the first ‘independent’ artists to be accepted on the national radio charts. They had success back in the day when it was almost impossible for unsigned artists to have top 10, let alone, top 5 songs. ...
| | New England Walking Wild CD (1981)
Closer Than Ever music CDs
$9.69
If the first album by New England is the band's best musical statement, Walking Wild is where the group could have gone. Todd Rundgren was the perfect choice to help tone down the ostentatious Mike Stone sounds, and the magician from Utopia brings this band a welcome and wonderful blend of progressive music and experimental rock. The very British and very cool "You're There" is the standout; although it never got the attention of the first album's "Don't Ever Wanna Lose Ya," the second album's "Explorer Suite," and this album's single "DDT" ("Dirty Dream Tonight"), it cries for attention and renewed interest. Great pop backing vocals reminiscent of Klaatu's "Calling Occupants" -- a hit for the Carpenters -- make this pure pop song a very satisfying ending to this disc, as creative as Boston area colleagues the Cars at their best. "L-5" is co-written by Todd Rundgren, keyboard player Jimmy Waldo, and singer John Fannon -- the first time Fannon is not credited as the sole songwriter (Rundgren wrote the lyrics, with music by Fannon/Waldo). This is a neat science fiction kind of tune that fans of Todd should seek out. "She's Gonna Tear You Apart" features lyrics by drummer Hirsh Gardner and music by Gardner/Fannon/Waldo -- three-fourths of the band. It's another change in style with a verse almost like one by .38 Special, before the band suddenly slips into a Cars/Roxy Music motif. The perfect example of Rundgren's production work being so distinctive from Mike Stone's is "Elevator," which would almost be punk rock except for the precise big vocal sound and everything being in tune. Fannon's lyrics are succinct and almost angry, from "He's fashionably mad/Rebel eyes/Fearless type/Raging force" on the title track to "Hit me," the first words in "Holdin' Out on Me." The Cars sang "You're All I've Got Tonight," and New England countered with "Be my "Dirty Dream Tonight." Walking Wild has found a new life re-released on the GB Music label out of New York City (http://www.newenglandrocks.com). A fourth disc by New England (demos recorded prior to the GB Music deal) has been issued on ...
