Our Take

Gerry Beckley's latest album, "Discovering America," is a delightful journey through the heartland of the US of A. Beckley, best known as a member of the iconic band America, takes listeners on a nostalgic road trip through his own unique perspective on American culture.

From the opening track "Route 66" to the closing number "California Dreaming," Beckley's smooth vocals and catchy melodies capture the essence of what it means to be an American. The album's production is top-notch, with lush instrumentation and crisp production that enhance Beckley's storytelling.

Standout tracks include "Memphis Moon," which is a toe-tapping ode to the city's rich musical history, and "New York City," a reflective ballad about the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple. Beckley's songwriting is both heartfelt and clever, with lyrics that paint vivid pictures of the places he's exploring.

While "Discovering America" may not break new ground in terms of musical innovation, it is a solid addition to Beckley's already impressive discography. Fans of classic rock and Americana will find plenty to love here, and newcomers will be charmed by Beckley's enthusiasm for his subject matter.

In conclusion, "Discovering America" is a musical travelogue that will leave listeners yearning for the open road and the endless possibilities that await. Beckley's love letter to his homeland is a joy to listen to, and a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the American landscape. Pack your bags, hit play, and let Gerry Beckley be your guide to Discovering America.
