Rumble Strip

Sayanara, Baby

(Martini Time Music)



Wordsmith Richard Rossi and ridiculously multi-talented Dave Nachmanoff evinced magical chemistry on 2021's Let's Roll. Comes today Sayanara Baby, ringing affirmation that when lightning strikes a second time, it can do so even more searingly. (Four tracks from the prior waxing reappear; their renewals reward.) Cherished stylings Folk, Pop, Rockabilly, and Blues are sampled in satisfying measure. Melodies frolic with the sweet spirits one would expect from veteran Al Kooper accomplice Dave. Erudite wordplay manages the seldom-realized task of suggesting both regular man and sensate versifier. 

Too, remark should be made about accompanists Bart Van der Zeeuw (drums) and backing vocalist Megan Kieven; their presence is advantageous, as the two gild materially.

Recommended: "Sayanara, Baby," "It Could Always Be Worse," "Actuary of Love," "Uber Driver," "South of the Border," "He Talks to Me," "Adam West"
