CD Review of Blue Ridge Kind of Love Call: 703-606-9706 by Jim Houck and Friends ...like a breath offresh air -- a wonderful mix of upbeat, happy songs. From the start, the title cut will get your toes tapping. It is followed by songs with just the right mix of tempos, all supported by excellent instrumentation and vocals. The percussion playing by John Melcher and keyboarding by Jim Houck are stellar. Jim's "Friends" lend great support throughout. Emma McLoughlin's vocals on "My Irish Home" are destined to become a classic. It will appeal to anyone wistfully thinking of their homeland, be it near or far away. Our top three favorites are: Blue Ridge Kind of Love, Loving Smiles and My Irish Home. Give Blue Ridge Kind of Love a listen. You'll find yourself smiling and humming the tunes, long after the music has ended.
