Vinny Burns main job is as the guitarist for UK hard rockers Ten. He has also played a big part with Dare – recording with them for 2 of their 3 albums.
I am a reformed Ten fan, after really getting into the guys on their Spellbound album. I especially love their ballads and for that reason was looking forward to this solo album by Vinny, given that it was set to return to Vinny’s mellower roots.
Well that it does to a point, but for the most part I am a little disappointed by this album. To me the songs aren’t as strong as his previous employment and the direction a little varied.
Having said that, it is with repeated listens that the album improves, but it still stops shy of what the guys have achieved in their past works.
