Review:
Dakota Moon's debut CD from 1998 still sounds amazingly fresh. The musicianship is stellar and the harmonies touch the sky! The opener "Another Day Goes By" is one of the most addictive tracks with its upbeat message and joyful chorus, "I want to be an eagle soaring high, sign my name across the sky; I gotta break free before I die, before another day goes by." "Snow In July" has Ty Taylor on lead vocals and sets a delicious groove in this breakup song guaranteed to set your toe tapping, "I thought that everything was fine but now you're turning on a dime & moving on." "She Knows" is an excellent track with Malloy's percussion giving a romantic march beat juxtaposed with the lads' soaring harmonies. "We Won't Be Alone Tonight" is also a great upbeat track with Dakota Moon's cool smooth vocal approach. The slow weeper "Black Moon Day" is a gorgeous melody with cello giving it a somber depth. "Dakota Moon" is a stunning debut whose musical quality should keep it from fading. Enjoy!
