Album DescriptionThe debut release by LA Singer-Guitarist Al Polito is an exciting journey through the thoughts and emotions of people in and out of love or luck. Weaving textures of classic rock (acoustic guitars, heavy electric guitar, Hammond organ, bass, drums, soaring harmonies) with poppy melodies and a wry but sentimental lyrical approach, "Gift" recalls not only Elvis Costello and the Beatles but Led Zeppelin and Supertramp. "It's All Right," a powerful hand for help for a hurting friend; "John Wayne," as infectious a song as any penned by Burt Bacharach or Paul McCartney; and the gospel-influenced "Love's Face" should put "Gift" on anyone's wish list.
