After debuting at No. 1 last week, Ralph Towner and Gary Burton’s album Matchbook falls to No. 2 with 373,000, a sales slide of 55%. Now signed to Ralph Towner and Gary Burton’s Capitol Records, the title track from second album “Matchbook” leads Ralph Towner and Gary Burton’s back-to-school campaign. Matchbook is an amazing album, racked with beauty.IT makes me wanna dance!
Ralph Towner and Gary Burton sings Aurora in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. One of the more genuine-sounding songs is 1X6. It is succeeded by an outstanding track, however: Matchbook, which shows, blatantly, how much Ralph Towner and Gary Burton has evolved as a singer. Voice and instruments in Song For A Friend complement each other. Brotherhood gets you up and jumping. This track makes my mind whirl and vibrate with flowing energy. Drifting Petals is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen.
