Subcat Records artist: Grupo Pagan - Power - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Power, from Grupo Pagan and it's a solid Latin flavored rocker. Opening with title track, Power, Edgar Pagan sets the lead with an excellent Latin bass line complimented with a full compliments of percussion by Emedin Rivera on drums, Joshua Dekaney on percussion, Jimmy Branley on percussion, Bill DiCostimo on keys and featuring Edgar on vocal, Este on hand drum and chants, Aam Fisher on nicely stylized guitar and backing vocals by Rhonda Paduano and Jose Varona. Energetic opener. Another track with strong Latin rhythms is Tito with clean guitar lead by Jeff Richman and Bill DeCosimo on keys, with solid bass work by Pagan, Luis Conte and Rivera on percussion and Joe Driscoll on beatbox. Sol has a cool Brazilian feel led by Daniel Pardo on flute with Pagan on bass and vocal, excellent work by Jimmy Haslip on synth, JoseVarona on drums, and Dave Donley on percussion. Very nice. Wrapping the release is cool latin rocker, Camila Vida Mia with Pagan setting a solid bass line and lead vocals, and tasty guitar lead by Irv Lyons Jr. Haslip adds real nice texture on keys and Shane Patterson on drums hold  the rhythm tight. Solid closer for a solid release.

Brody Buster - Redemption - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Redemption, from Brody Buster and it's a solid blues rocker. Opening with Can You Hear Me, Brody Buster leads the way on vocal and lead guitar with plenty of swagger. Jackie Myers on organ and Terry Dry on bass work with powerhouse Ian Pond on drums and Buster on Harmonica adds real punch. Deadwood Shuffle adds real spunk to the set with a lively rhythm, Myers on organ, Danielle Nicole on backing vocals and Buster on harmonica really lays it out there. A Latin rhythm on Wish These Blues Would Stop, driven by Pond on drums, features Buster on lead vocal and playing some great swinging guitar/harmonica lead work. Very nice. The Color Blue is a solid ballad featuring the pure vocals of Buster, Jacque Garqutte on vocal, bass and rhythm guitar and Myers on piano. I particularly like This Time I Got The Blues with some of the best vocals on the release, carried by Myers on piano and organ and nicely complimented by Buster's own guitar and harmonica playing. Wrapping the release is rocker, The Wants, with a great driving rhythm and hot harmonica and guitar riffs by Buster. Rocking closer.
