The King & The Queen (Reprise) 02:19 Release Notes: Late 2005 release of 14 songs of unreleased and rare songs from Kyle Vincent and fans, trust us, will not be disappointed. Pure Pop in the classic style of the best singer-songwriters. An absolute must for anyone who craves melody, a great vocalist, and a strong lyric. Vincent describes his music as Neil Diamond and Elton John eating Bread with Gilbert O`Sullivan! Well, that is mighty appetizing and I`m certain they`ll be plenty of picture perfect flair for Raspberries sweetness. Without question, his voice is one of the smoothest, silkiest and croony ones you`ll ever hear. MADE for this idiom, Vincent wears his Raspberries/solo Eric Carmen influences proud in a bunch of spots, of course. But, he`s also a fan of AOR song craft and is not afraid to avoid NOT turning up the guitar and letting the dynamics of the song ring clear. Kyle goes back to his power pop roots (he was the lead singer of the seminal 80`s hair band, "Candy")on several tracks; doesn`t abandon his affinity for the grandiose ballad on a couple, and effortlessly sings his guts out on just about every second of this disc. "Save Me" is almost more Elton John than Elton, and "I Don`t Wanna Know" is almost more Eric Carmen than Eric Carmen. That`s not to say that Vincent is just a derivative artist, not at all, it`s to say that he warrants comparisons to artists of such magnitude, and is in good company with those that had an obvious influence on him. Fans of classic 70`s singer/songwriter pop will want to gobble this collection up, but so should any fan of just great melodic music.
