James Intveld with the Velvet Candles

"Love You Still" b/w "Got the Blues"

(Sleazy Records)



James is already well known and favored as both a singer who possesses golden pipes and a soloing guitarist of tectonic essence. Barcelona's Velvet Candles may be less globally celebrated, but the night is young. Like James, they, too, harbor estimable capacities; wider renown is sure to one day be theirs, also. What resulted from their joined forces is classical Rock'n'Roll both weighty and spring shod. Doubters (should there be any) will find cautions fading as these waxed numbers - the A side a rollicker; the flip, lighter on the gas pedal, its cruise bolstered by handclaps - make jukeboxes kick up dust.
