Sounds Like: A good time happening... REVIEWS: Timeless rock 'n' roll is a difficult trick to pull off; On "The Yellow Album" Detroiter Thomas Tom Di Stefano offers up 10 buoyant songs. Music critic ~ Gary Graff ____________________________________Occasionally something bursts through the swamp of discs that a rock critic calls a desk, begging for a third - and fourth, and fifth - listen, imparting that tingly thrill of discovery that comes only once every long while. This is one of them. Around a fat rainbow of bright guitars, Di Stefano lays down punchy drums and hearty melodies, all in a snug four track mix that looms larger than it has the right to. This is soaring power pop that is messy enough to rock. Di Stefano's vocals smile while they sneer and the crackerjack delivery simply tops off what Di Stefano's dazzling songwriting already ensures: This is summer car music - snag one while the air's still hot. ~ Brian McCollum - Detroit Free Press _______________________________________________________ Check out The Yellow Album at Amazon!!!The Yellow Album ..
