Bryan Duncan – Holy Rollin’ – 1986

This is Bryan’s second album after the breakup of Sweet Comfort Band. I think this is the album however that showed us where he was really going with his music. He settled on a style that suited him well. Dare I say it was far better than anything he ever did with SCB. This album has some blues undertones with Pop overtones and it works well. Bit of trivia on this album is that Bob Carlisle of Allies sings somewhere on this album or at least he was credited for it.

Sweet Comfort Band – Hold On Tight – 1979

The 3rd album from Sweet Comfort Band gave us more of what we heard in the first two.

They are joined on this album by Richie Furay who fits in perfectly with what is an easy listening album. Really, it’s just more of the same as previous releases and doesn’t really offer the listener much to get excited about.

The highlight of the album is the track Angel. It shows that these guys could have done a Rock & Roll album, but chose instead to take the safe sales route.

Track Listing:
1 – Hold On Tight 3:20
2 – Take It – Save It 3:17
3 – Falling Star 3:04
4 – You’re The One 3:10
5 – Angel 3:10
6 – Chasin’ The Wind 3:29
7 – Don’t Tell Me You Love Me 3:07
8 – Undecided 3:53
9 – Carry Me 4:39
10 – More Than You Need 4:32
11 – Find Your Way 4:09
