专辑简介

Once in a while a new talent arrives upon the music scene, someone gifted with a unique and penetrating style and a rich voice that becomes instantly identifiable. Randy Barlow is this kind of talent. His versatility and emotional conviction are demonstrated throughout this CD, as he easily shifts from the bittersweet pathos of "The Bottle Took His Mother (And My Wife)' to the tongue in cheek satire of "I'm A Swinger". And when Randy delivers the foot-stompin' Neil Diamond classic, "Kentucky Woman", it is evident that he's been there, as indeed he has, having grown up in Kentucky before moving to California. There is not a song on this album that isn't real when Randy sings it, and when he moves into "California Lady", which he co-wrote, the sensitivity and warmth of delivery leave no doubt of his sincerity. When he sings "Walk Away With Me", the strength and range of Randy's voice create and excitement few can equal.

Randy takes pride in re-introducing his introductory album "ARRIVAL" on CD for you all to enjoy. He loves to sing and entertain and after listening to him on this CD, you will be glad you did. Enjoy!
