Good Points: Surprisingly major-label standard production values; toe-tapping, memorable pop/rock songs; moving vocals and lyrics.
Bad Points: Album is too short.
General comments: Scott Celani, Saturday - Singer/songwritter Scott Celani is definitely in the classic-rock mold. No, it's not that his music reflects the hippie stylings of late '60s-early '70s AOR fodder. The comparison is made because of the clarity and straightforward nature of his words, the ready-ready warmth of his vocals, and the poppy crunch of his guitars. The first five tracks on this CD are aching to be singles, with "Long Road to Nowhere," "Tell Me It's Over," and the title tune having the strongest appeal. I'd link Celani with groups such as Matchbox 20 and Hootie & the Blowfish, only his lyrics are far superior, taking poetic turns. I wish the record were longer, though, but consider it a tight EP. No filler here, man. Check it out at http://www.scottcelani.com.
