Tracks

Here on “Tracks”, there is a perfect balance between production and musicianship. You can tell that Chuck Eaton and his crew take great care of how the music is played, and sung. It’s not transcendental or groundbreaking; it’s just simple and effective mood-creating melodies. This resembles one of those sleeves you would have proudly pulled out from the “Adult Contemporary” section in your local record store during the seventies. Clean, honest and pure music, with no cursing or parental advisory warnings! This is the perfect music to turn the lights down and relax to. Although it has a number of up-tempo tracks like “Private Sky”, “What Went So Wrong”, “Pretty Queen”, “What Has Made You Change” and “Till I get a true love”, it is still an album that wraps itself around you, cocooning you in an envelope of classy ballads. Reach out for your favorite nightcap then play through tracks like, “Why Don’t You Come To My Arms”, “One More Reason”, “Stupid Heart”, “It Was Not By Accident” and “Songs Like This” to set your loving mood before bedtime. Chuck Eaton is a gifted artist who is quite adept at mixing musical styles and creating a wide array of moods, tones and settings. This collection is certainly no exception. Chuck has a powerful sense of melody – the songs are beautifully crafted with lovely cord changes and arrangements to match. Sit down, relax, put your headphones on, and just listen to the music. This collection of songs is a quality effort from a veteran songwriter who still has something to say (especially about love). It is direct, sincere, and has Chuck Eaton writing from the heart and singing like it all matters.
