Bruce Hornsby

[fuzzbubble]

I know Bruce Hornsby is a little middle of the road to some, but I personally love his work. 'The Way It is' is probably familiar to most especially since tupac's version of the song became a hit. Unfortunately that song, despite it's brilliance, seems to have an overbearing quality on Bruce's work as his subsequent work seem to have receieved less puclic attention, although it should be noted that Bruce has always done what he wanted and hence the surpsingly varied nature of his catalogue of work and no doubt that is one of the reasons he has maintaned a large dedicated following. His chops on the Piano and Jazz piano a only rivalled by a few.

Anyway obviously 'The Way It Is' is a great song and album, but I personally think his next album with his band The Range is his best 'Scenes from the south side.

Songs:

The way it is

Look out any window

Resting place

Preacher in the ring

Mandolin rain

across the river
