RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON GIANT RECORDS 1991. 7599-24416-1 made in Germany. With original innersleeve. Vinyl NM. Cover NM. Michael McDermott's deep, throaty vocal tone calls to mind Bruce Springsteen, and in some places he even sounds as if he might be attempting an impression of the Boss. If his debut album, 620 W. Surf, doesn't quite equal Springsteen in the maturity and depth of its songwriting, it does demonstrate considerable promise. McDermott's acoustic-based roots rock, which employs heavy doses of harmonica, organ, and piano (including a guest performance by another famous Bruce -- Hornsby), yields some memorable tunes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_McDermott_(musician) Tracklist A1 A Wall I Must Climb 3:45A2 Fool's Avenue 4:53A3 Shadow Of The Capitol 4:18A4 No. 49 3:28A5 Your Silence I Will Always Admire For Its Being 9:57B1 Sacred Ground 4:10B2 620 W.
