“Unspoken” by Greg Simpson

Greg Simpson’s album, “Unspoken”, is a refreshing mix of easy rock and timely issues.  His voice and music remind me of the late 80’s pop icon Don Henley, with a hint of the contemporary Christian icon, Russ Taff.  His lyrics witness of his faith, yet avoid preaching at the listener.  Overall, I enjoyed this album immensely.

‘Rhythm of Life’ opens the album, and is a driving number about feeling good after surviving a crisis.  The cut ‘If You Want Me To’ is a slow, danceable number that humbly affirms devotion and dedication.  Other notable tracks are ‘Blue Skies’ and ‘Growing Young’,  although all the tracks are of equal quality.

This album has been fun and uplifting to hear, and was a treat to review.  I highly recommend “Unspoken” by Greg Simpson for anyone who likes classic 80’s rock, Don Henley, Russ Taff, or just feel-good music in the background.  Greg Simpson has done a wonderful job crafting “Unspoken”.
