Our Take

Gene Pitney's latest release, "A Street Called Hope," is a delightful journey through the nostalgic sounds of the 1960s. Pitney, known for his emotionally charged vocals and dramatic ballads, does not disappoint with this album. From the catchy melodies of "Something's Gotten Hold of My Heart" to the heartbreaking lyrics of "24 Hours from Tulsa," Pitney's rich voice shines through on every track. The lush orchestration and sweeping strings transport listeners back to a time when love songs ruled the airwaves. But don't be fooled by the romantic facade - Pitney also delves into darker territory with tracks like "Town Without Pity" and "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance." These songs showcase Pitney's versatility as an artist, proving that he is more than just a one-trick pony. Overall, "A Street Called Hope" is a solid addition to Pitney's extensive discography. While it may not break any new ground, it is a comforting reminder of why he has remained a musical icon for over six decades. So grab a cup of tea, put on your favourite vinyl, and let Gene Pitney's timeless tunes take you on a trip down memory lane. Cheers, mate!
