RUSSELL THORNBERRY Ten Dollar Songs (Royalty 2000-2) "I lay my whole life on the line, with every song I write. Al- though the melody is fine and the words come out alright, I'm writin' ten dollar songs and I'm selling them for five", which is a good lyrical introduction to Edmonton's Russell Thornberry - a gentle adult contemporary giant. Thornberry is a veteran of the Sho music business but, up to now, hasn't had the vehicle to bring him home. This set, produced at Edmonton's Century II and Sundown Recorders by Thornberry and R.Harlan Smith, is a Carlton perfect showcase for a singer/songwriter who varies his style and instrumental arrangements to create an extraordinary package of entertainment. The above lyrics, by the way are from his opening cut, So Long, which has been culled as a single, with Misery Loves Company as the flip, a cute little ditty that could attract country play. Session musicians playa large part in the Professionalism of this album. Unfortunately, they don't get a mention. Nice piano styling throughout. Contains his most re- cent single release, Strangers Again.
