| | Robert Palmer Heavy Nova CD Robert Palmer Discography of CDs
For a couple of years in the mid- to late 1980s, it sure must have felt good to be Robert Palmer. After building a solo career gradually for a decade, Palmer found himself reaping the benefits. Though Palmer had just achieved success with RIPTIDE producer Bernard Edwards, he opted to produce the follow-up to that platinum-selling record, HEAVY NOVA, himself.
Some songs are emphatically in the vein of Palmer's '80s solo work with Power Station, but there's an adult pop sensibility here also, that's more VH1 than MTV. He sings his first torch song (the touching "It Could Happen to You"), yodels on the Wimoweh-esque "Change His Ways," and shows he can still get real laid-back on the country-flavored "Disturbing Behavior." Nevertheless, stomping drums, plucked bass, and synth textures dominate on such funky tracks as "Tell Me I'm Not Dreaming" and "Simply Irresistible." The single "She Makes My Day" sold well, and "Simply Irresistible" did even better.
Recorded at Logic Studios, Milan, Italy and Compass Point Studios, Bahamas.

The best of the best of RedEyeC - musicians have raved over the passionate shredding and crying of Bob Forbes' guitar work:On Firebird: Forgive me if I rave on here...but this track has really won me over. I've played it about four times before starting on the review trying to absorb all that I can. This is a superbly crafted piece of music that is just perfect for its subject matter. You can picture exactly what the artist describes. It starts with background synths and a harmony bass/vibe run, before some excellent guitar lines come in. The motif then recurs with percussion and some swirling synths in the background before a wonderful organ sound joins in. Then an electric guitar plays variations on the main motif before it's joined by a brother guitar harmonizing. Then comes some flaying guitar lines, more organ......Wonderfully textured piece of music. Congrats RedeyeC. One of the best Progressive pieces I've come across.Highly recommended --Brian Ralston - Selftort*****On Chambers of Medusa: Right off the bat this track grabs the listener, a stomping jaunt into the unknown, the guitar is on FIRE!!!A surging of power pushes the track from within, this is hard to create but you nailed it, and those bursts of heat from that awesome guitar sound and playing are sheer bliss, there's a rippling layer of electricity in this track, it's like I can't think of a genre for it - maybe ambient power, startling work. This should be in the next James Bond film, elegent and dangerous - WOW!!All the best to you, THUMBSUP!!!Great creativity and accuracy, not to mention superb polished production. --Maria Daines***** On Beside You: WeLL ThaTS HOW ThiS MAkes ME FeeL ...
