5.0 out of 5 stars A great record from a great songwriter, July 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Palookaville (Audio CD)

Glen Burtnik could be the most underrated songwriter out there today. This is truly a great record from a guy who is not exactly a household name. Paul McCartney wishes he could still write songs this good. The record is very melodic and filled with fat hooks that leave you singing the songs for the rest of the day. This is a must have for all pop/rock fans. All in all,a very well crafted record.

5.0 out of 5 stars Burtnik one of the best, November 22, 2001

Geln Burtnik was the replacement for Tommy Shaw when Styx reformed in 1990, but there is more to Glen Burtnik than that ill-fated reunion. Burtnik has written songs for others that have made them lots of money. He wrote Little Susie for Styx in 1996 which can be heard here in its original as Little Lucy Blues. Watching the World Go By is a song that was recorded for the never released 1992 Styx Album before they were cut by A&M records. All the songs on this CD are great. They show off his skills with the guitar and songwriting. If you are a Styx fan you'll love this, but if you are a music fan, you HAVE to get this.

5.0 out of 5 stars New Jersey's Finest Songwriter, January 8, 1999

Being a Glen Burtnik fan from way back, I can only say great things about this album. I love the old stuff, as well as the new. Be sure to check out "Spirit of a Boy, Wisdom of a Man". If you're also a fan of country music, you know it's a giant hit for Randy Travis.
