It's about time that the rock 'n' roll world got a new female voice
and that voice belongs to Summer Rose (is that a rock 'n' roll name
or what) and she can be heard on Snapdragon's debut, twelve song release,
"Family Jewels." Her vocal style reminds me of Stevie Nicks in a way...because
you can't really say she sounds like this person or that person...she's
got a style that's all her own. Musically, Snapdragon isn't doing anything
new, you've heard this before. Rock 'n' roll that's not too heavy and
it's not too mellow either. I guess, for lack of a better term, you
could call it pop rock...with balls. But, when music is this good, who
cares if it has been done before...I certainly don't. I appreciate the
fact that the main focus seems to be on the songs themselves and how
they're presented to the listening audience. Going back to the terms,
I would be quick to say that this is one of those albums that we would
call a "party record." If you're throwin' a party and there's gonna
be beer and good times, this is the kind of album that you want blasting
out of your stereo speakers. Personally, if I'm gonna blow twenty bucks
on a CD, this would be the kind of album that I would go looking for.
It's solid from begining to end and it's the kind of album that I could
listen to over and over again and not get bored with it. If you appreciate
rock 'n' roll of the highest quality, you'll appreciate what Snapdragon
has to offer. I pray to the Almighty God of rock 'n' roll that this
band sticks around for a good twenty years or more and they keep giving
us the kind of music that I've heard on this release. Support this band
and everything they do...they deserve to be number one!
