Interesting album. Probably not very original, but I don't care when it's rockin' the house in such way !

Seventh key is a studio project from Billy Greer (Kansas' bass player and second singer). I must say that Billy have a great voice and know what to do to make you wanna Rock'n'Roll ! The album contains 11 songs which are almost all very cool, quite basic but their catchy melodies and hooks are more than welcomed. I had a bad feeling about this album since I usually don't like side projects from known artists as sometimes it's just to make more money and you can almost feel it in the sound sometimes ! But here they guys are playing with their hearts and deliver a very good, enjoyable release. The guitar sounds are very warm with nice solos and melodies that makes the songs fly in the air.

The overall reminds me a bit of Magnum and also Chicago sometimes... The production is very good and I also like the artcover a lot. If you like 80's style Hard-Rock with nice vocals, catchy melodies and a tad of Rock'n'Roll attitude then be sure to check out Seventh Key cause it's for sure a nice album !
