Little River Band | Cuts Like A Diamond – CD Review

0
2068

Little River Band are back with their 18th studio release (and first with all original songs since 2003’s Test Of Time), Cuts Like A Diamond. Stand-out tracks include “You Dream I’ll Drive,” “Who Speaks For Me” and “Love Is.”

“You Dream I’ll Drive” is a classic, blues-rock tune with some great riffs, lyrics and harmonies. “Who Speaks For Me” takes on the tough topic of domestic violence with a brilliant and compelling perspective. Solid guitars, strong vocals, this is a song you’ll remember as much for it’s musicality as the questions it raises.

The harmonies on the album’s closer “Love Is” are pure LRB vocals at their best. Cuts Like a Diamond is a winner all the way around and a must-have for LRB fans and classic rock lovers. Kudos to Wayne Nelson, Chris Marion, Greg Hind, Rich Herring and Ryan Ricks for delivering the classic LRB sound with a fresh, contemporary voice on Cuts Like A Diamond.
