Oh David

Released 1991 White Records/Distributed by BMG Records

With the first cut of this CD simply entitled DAVID, the listener is transported to sandy beaches as they relax in a hammock and listen to Do The Limbo Dance. Then, just as quickly, David Hasselhoff whisks them away to a smoky clearing in the forest as they watch the dance of a Gipsy Girl whirling around a night fire. The smell of the smoke actually tinges my nostrils.

That is how powerful I found the images evoked by the lyrics and Hasselhoffs voice. It didnt matter that I was walking along a city street on a warm sunny afternoon with traffic speedy by as I listened to this CD on my daily walks. In my minds eye, I was far away from my Canadian city. For four minutes and eleven seconds I was even in Casablanca.

One thing that has always impressed me with all of Hasselhoffs music is the emotion he manages to portray with every song especially since he does not have any writing credit. I am certain that he must have some input though when there is a song entitled Taylor Ann, the name of his first daughter, and talks of a young child discovering the world. But Davids emotions come through in every song.

My two favorite songs however are In Stereo and Hands Up For Rock n Roll because the writers could have been describing me. But I swear I have never met anyone involved with this CD. Yet I am the type that everywhere I go, there is music all around and for whatever is ailing me I can always cure it with some rock and roll.

DAVID is a fun CD, thats the good news. The bad news is that I bought it off of Ebay so it might be difficult to find. But if you can find it, buy it. It is great to listen and dance to. I danced up and down the street numerous times, just ask my neighbors.
