Description
Singer/songwriter Stephen Shepherds new and third CD, Love Heals All Things, contains 12 more original songs in the country rock & folk genre. Like his first two CDs, Einsteins Hair (2004) and Heartbreak Standard Time (2005), which collectively combined for 14 hit records in Europe, Wake Me From This Nightmare a single from Love Heals All Things - continues to receive intense European radio airplay.
Described as Gordon Lightfoot with a twang, Stephen Shepherds music on Love Heals All Things combines haunting lyrics, vaulting melodies, and superb acoustic guitar, dobra, and piano. While the metaphorical lyrics found in songs like Shades of Darkness, Love Heals All Things, and In the Shade set an introspective mood much like Lightfoots music, Shepherds literal use of straightforward country lyrics found in his Jimmy Buffet-like song Eaten By The Rich, The Eagles-like City Boy and The Wars Never Over, or Johnny Cash-like Bought Some Roses makes the country-edge real.
Perhaps the biggest song on the album is Shepherds country song Wake Me From This Nightmare, which successfully fulfills a country fans need for down home lyrics with a sweeping melody about lost love, while the third verse reaches into a dream-like state to introduce a surreal country sound.
Lighter, melodious songs ( a la Lightfoot) include Standing Here Like Me, reflections about a childhood home, and Seven Miles Away, a worship & praise song about Christs birth.
Finally, two blues tunes hit the mark. Saturday Morning TV focuses on the influence of television violence on children, while Biopsy Blues chases the notion that medical science cant cure love sickness.
With his third album, Love Heals All Things and his 36th recorded song in three years, Stephen Shepherd is fast proving to be a prolific and articulate songwriter with compelling cross-genre music.
