RAY MATERICK ,!7t\ Midnight Matinee Asylum 7ESC-10003-P Materick is branching out into different styles on this album, continuing in a few cuts with the kind of country he's done before, and on others rock, folk, and ballad. His voice remains unique, and his lyrics are much above average. Although Materickissigned directlyto Asylum in Los Angeles, he continues to record in Canada. This one was done at Phase One with Don Potter, a newcomer known for session - work with Dan Hill, in the production seat. He carries on the tradition of production quality Asylum is known for. Helping out are band members Bill Cymbala on drums, Bob Doidge on bass, violin and trumpet (and outstanding on all three): Dan Lanois on guitar and pedal steel, Ed Roth on keyboards with Materickalsoon guitar. Excellent guitarist Danny McBride helps out on a few cuts, as do the string players from the Toron- to Symphony Orchestra (we're told). A single has been released called Ride Away, and it is one of the better cuts. Also strong are The Sorrow Of Your Life, The Grand Compromise, Storm Warning and the title cut.
