But here ROBIN GEORGE has gathered no less than 50 artists of various genres for a good cause. Members and ex.members of bands like URIAH HEEP, UFO, DIAMOND HEAD, QUIREBOYS, and ASIA, to mention but a few, have all contributed. The main material comes from Robin\u00b4s back catalogue, but there are also added specials, and specially written songs. As further evidence of dedication all profits will go to BCAT, Haven House and the Compton Hospice. <\/p>\n<p>Those who expect only hard rock or thereabouts will have to reconsider, the main object here is musicianship, and not distorted guitars. The title track maybe gentle rock with a message, but it is also proof of Robin\u00b4s dedication and the generosity of the artists involved. The voices of Ruby Turner and Jaki Graham add dimensions and the refrain could go on forever. It is fascinating to hear Robin\u00b4s old chestnuts in new or at least slightly different versions. Anyone not penchant to \u201cCocoon\u201d or \u201cHeartline\u201d ought to see a doctor. Choirs of famous musicians and over 200 schoolchildren add credibility to the cause, and seldom has \u201cWith a Lilttle Help from My Friends\u201d sounded so true. Or on his own with the LovePower Band, as they excell in a very emotional &#8221;King\u00b4s Call&#8221;. I personally fancy the \u201creturn\u201d of David Byron (R.I.P) in the soft and very suitable \u201cTired Eyes\u201d, as well as hearing one of his successors to the Heep, Pete Goalby, make the most of \u201cMona Lisa Smile\u201d. The aspiring rocker will probably like \u201cAlice\u201d and the MARSHAL LAW track \u201cNo Justice\u201d. Most people will enjoy the album. It is a good thing that enjoyment is also giving a helping hand here. The album is a solid four, the cause is a solid 5\/5.<\/p>\n<p>Track List<br \/>\nLove Power and Peace<br \/>\nSeven Golden Daffodils<br \/>\nCocoon<br \/>\nPride<br \/>\nBluesong<br \/>\nWorld<br \/>\nKing\u00b4s Call<br \/>\nTired Eyes<br \/>\nAnother Lonely Night<br \/>\nWith a Little Help from My Friends<br \/>\nMona Lisa Smile<br \/>\nWasted Time<br \/>\nAlice<br \/>\nNo Justice<br \/>\nHeartline<br \/>\nNext to You\/Don\u00b4t Turn Away<br \/>\nAngelSong<\/p>\n<p>www.angelair.co.uk www.robingeorge.co.uk <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angel Air\/Border Just about every charitable issue gets a music project, or a single these days.
