"Anyone who remembers Jerry Riopelle's early success in the 70's ("Walkin on Water") has been asking......WHERE'S JERRY? Well, after a long hiatus, "Hush Money" is a credible return of an outstanding singer/songwriter who has been sorely missed. The sound is....well, yes, more mature.....but haven't we all grown up a bit since singing along with Jerry at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix (the placed he "owned" oh those many years ago). Fine guitar work, meaningful lyrics and Jerry's unique voice will bring back great memories for his fans.....and perhaps find him some new ones. It doesn't appear that his early works have been released on CD.....with some modest success for "Hush Money", perhaps we'll get lucky.........."

Welcome back, Jerry.

"One of the best things about being an announcer on AOR (Album Oriented Rock) radio stations was the constant exposure to great music, through the distribution of promotional albums. "Saving Grace" and "Take a Chance" were two early Jerry Riopelle collections which deserved airplay, but didn't get much outside his native Southwestern U.S. Alas, his early record company (ABC, I believe) didn't give him enough of its promotional budget to make him a contender. I am a huge fan of his music, and have always believed he got a raw deal. It's great to have him back with such a solid effort as "Hush Money." Buy it."
