In the mid 80s through early 90s, Chris Hillman, John Jorgensen, & Herb Pedersen infused the Nashville country music scene with a jolt of California Country. The Byrd's Hillman, an alt. country pioneer, is just what country radio needed after a decade of Urban Cowboyism had left it flat and pop-like. Listeners responded well to often up beat jangly sounds of the Desert Rose Band, too. Songs like "Love Reunited," "She Don't Love Nobody," "Summer Wind," "One Step Forward," & "Story of Love," are perfect tunes to play with the convertible top down on a bright sunny day. Infectious melodies will assure your participation in the fun! The guys do ballads well, too. Charting high "I Still Believe in You (Now)," & the classic, "He's Back & I'm Blue," offer stories of true love and heartache set to John Jorgensen's amazing licks. And who wouldn't love the bands rendition of George Jones', "Hello Trouble?" These 9 tracks plus 3 more from their later sessions round out the disc, reminding us of the genesis of country music's later resurgence in the nineties. The Desert Rose Band may come from a desolate place, but they definitely breathed life back into country music when it was needed most. A Dozen Roses is worth keeping in hot rotation in your car, SUV, or truck. Just remember to roll down the windows and enjoy the breeze along the way!Read full review
