"Today" by Robert Bobby

"Today" is an impressive modern folk CD by veteran artist Robert Bobby. The strength of the CD lies in the witty and romantic songwriting, combined with the natural sound of the acoustic instrumentation and Robert's gritty and effective vocals. This is storytelling and visual songwriting from the heart. The acoustic stringed instrument performances on the CD are notable, with many different sounds that are nicely blended to provide the proper accent to Robert's voice. "Sweet Potato Vine" is a memorable song with the authentic modern folk sound and tasteful guitar fills that is typical of this CD. "Dance" is one of our favorite tracks with its upbeat groove, yet unplugged acoustic feel. "Stop In The Name of Love" is a stripped-down, slowed-down version of this American music classic that we find ourselves listening to again and again. If you enjoy modern folk artists such as John Prine, you will enjoy this CD. Pick up a copy today!
