According to producer/engineer/keyboardist, CJ VANSTON, King Of
Hearts might be the most famous band you’ve never heard. But, while
you might not know them by name, you've heard them on thousands of
hit recordings for some of the world's most successful artists.
In addition to recording with Toto, John Mayer, James Taylor, Diana
Ross, Larry Carlton and many more, drummer, KEITH CARLOCK, has for
the past 15 years been the driving force in the studio and on the
road for Steely Dan. Sting calls Keith "one of the greatest drummers
in the world."
Multi Grammy winner, bassist, JOHN PATITUCCI, has played on countless
albums and toured with artists such as B. B. King, Bonnie Raitt,
Chick Corea, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, George Benson, Dizzy
Gillespie, Wynton Marsalis, and Sting. In 1986, John was voted by his
peers as the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences MVP on
Acoustic Bass and most recently won his third Grammy as member of the
legendary Wayne Shorter Quartet.
Composer, producer, arranger, keyboardist, CJ VANSTON has worked with
artists such as Prince, Toto, Def Leppard, Celine Dion, Justin
Timberlake, Bob Seger and countless others. In addition to scoring
the Christopher Guest’s films Waiting For Guffman, Best In Show,
Almost Heroes and For Your Consideration, CJ has performed as musical
director and keyboardist for Joe Cocker, Tina Turner, Tears For Fears
and the legendary Spinal Tap along with recently produced Toto's
highly acclaimed album, Toto XIV.
Founding member and lead guitarist, BRUCE GAITSCH has written with
and for numerous platinum artists including Chicago, the number one
songs "La Isla Bonita" (Madonna) and "It Don't Mean Nothin" and
"Right Here Waiting For You" (Richard Marx) and recorded with artists
such as Roger Waters, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Chicago, Richard
Marx, Celine Dion and many more.
TOMMY FUNDERBURK established his recording career as lead vocalist
in the critically acclaimed group, Airplay with David Foster that
featured the original recording of the classic number one song,
"After The Love Is Gone." Tommy's vocals are featured on hundreds of
recordings with artists as diverse as Boston, Jimmy Page, Celine
Dion, Whitesnake, Rod Stewart, David Foster, Toto, Bon Jovi, Heart,
Spinal Tap, Elton John, Cheap Trick, Pat Benatar, Yes, Bad Company,
REO Speed Wagon, Motley Crue, Spinal Tap and many others.
Some of today’s most respected studio musicians and legendary artists
have adding their talents to the album including Timothy B Schmit
(Eagles), Peter Cetera (Chicago), Phil Collen (Def Leppard), Chris
Rodriguez (Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald, Vince Gill), and Janey
Clewer (Sarah Brightman, Julio Iglesias, George Benson).
Tommy Funderburk himself says...
"The sound of the record is 'modern classic rock.' If you mix the
sound of the Eagles, Don Henley, Bruce Hornsby with Toto and Def
Leppard with a splash of Keith Emerson and Coldplay, what would that
sound like? It sounds awesome! We started referring to it as Modern
Classic Rock because of all the different elements and textures to
the music we were creating."
Ripper's Notes:
Third album from the legendarily bad "West Coast" soft rock duo.
This is the best of the three, at least. Possibly a cure for
insomnia.
