[Heeplist] Lee's new cd (it's lee so it's heep related)

[Igor Shveitser]

 Hi there,
I've heard only one song yet, that is Walk Tall - well, it is ok. If the entire album is of that quality, that is quite good for this day and age. No offence, but I must make it clear: it is a huge difference if you have Lawton singing (or Ozzy) or if it is some Scandinavian bloke. No offence, once again, but if you have clones behind the mike - you'll never make it of the same value no matter how good you are at composing. And I do quite like "Who needs me" being made by those musicians in 1977, it is a classic song :) Time and people make a difference, that is my point.
Take care, Igor
