Add Date: November 10
Artist: Robert Francis
Album: Before Nightfall
Label: Atlantic
Genre: Rock/Folk/Pop
Comments: Before Nightfall is Robert Francis's second full-length release, and first on Atlantic Records. It is definitely a poppy alt-country collection of songs. However, a little melodramatic for my tastes. Francis pulls off this sound well though with dynamic songs and catchy melodies. Lap steal guitar adds an alt-country feel in most songs. Some songs take on a classic rock feel as well, in particular track 5, "I Like the Air." The promoter calls the CD full of "somber tones and brokenhearted crooning." Even though the lyrics follow these themes, the rhythms and occasional dirty guitar riffs keep things relatively upbeat on the album. Start with #1 "Darkness," #4 "Climb a Mountain," and #8 "Where You Came From."
