    Press Reviews
    REVIEW BY MAKE A STAR.COM for "Perfect World"...: ...on the music, arrangement and production... The intro is pretty intriguing... the rhythm of the guitar and band is locked on... the melodies are lyric driven... plenty interesting... good arrangement and interesting mix... dreamy vibe... ...on originality and marketability... Not bad, Prudence. Your expression surpasses your influences, so the listener hears you, not your role models. This counts for a lot in music, because if you can sound authentic in your personality and ideas, you can get an audience, almost guaranteed if you are good and take the self-critical approach. Lots of critical listening to be done, but there is a diamond under all this ruff. ............... REVIEW BY DAVID KROMM JR., Musician, Producer, Social Activist...: John Lennon would love this new dreamy psychedelic rock tune! But the sound is modernized compared to the classic Beatle album "Abbey Road" or the classic Lennon "solo" album "Mind Games". Quite frankly, the ambience is a bit Eno-esque, and U2 can tell you how much a bit of that can help you! Neo-psychedelic music is really an important trend in progressive music today, which will find it's place in the new movements which are rapidly growing now. ............... REVIEW BY DYNE OF FUNENDER.COM...: ... Big Red Daddy - Finally a Christmas song with some actual feeling and original lyrics. I'm tired of hearing bands cover jingle bells and whatnot, this is refreshing. The guitar is played beautifully and with lots of heart. Everything keeps together in a nice rhythm, even the bells near the end. Very tight song, nothing strays. ... Perfect World - Top recording, I could picture this song on the radio while driving to the beach with some friends. This song has more of a diverse selection of melodies and harmonies than the previous song, and the singers voice has much more feeling. Reminds me a bit of Morel. I like! ... Big Red Lets Loose - Pretty straight forward blues-funk bass riffs here. The guitar is just as powerful as in the first song, the guitarist really has a good talent in being able to play a variety of styles instead of just one; and seems like a master in doing each. Great recordings, great production, great songwriting.
