94、95年のボビーのツアーに同行したマイケル・リントンのデビューアルバム。
<Tell It Like It Is>を歌うのはボビー・コールドウェル!
最近のステージで定番的な曲はこのアルバムに収録されていたのです。(後に98年のボビーのベスト『Timeline』に収済)
ランド・リチャーズ、アラン・ハインズ、アーノ・ルーカス、ジーン・マックレインなどボビー一派がバックアップしたここちよいフュージョンアルバムです。

Release Jun 20,2000

マイケル・リントンのセカンド・アルバム『Vivid』登場!
94、95年のツアーに参加していた彼の待望のアルバムが昨年リリースされていました。デビューアルバムではボビーをヴォーカルに迎えた<Tell It Like It Is>が記憶に新しいところですね。今回は、ランディー・クロフォード、ジョン・パゴーノをゲストヴォーカルに迎え、コンテンポラリーなサウンドを展開しています。それもそのはず、プロデューサーはあのピーター・ブネッタ。また、アラン・ハインズ、ジーン・マックレイン、レスリー・スミスやアーノ・ルーカスといったボビー一派に加え、ニール・スチューベンハウス、リッキー・ローソン、レニー・カストロなど豪華面子がバック・アップ。
ロベルト・ヴァレイ(彼もボビーのツアーメンバー)との共作<Sarai>、ルー・パルディニとの共作となる<All Because Of You>あたりがお薦め。残念ながらボビーのクレジットは見当たらず、、、(泣)
メロディアスでファンキーな泣きのサックスを聴かせるマイケル・リントンの今後の展開に注目!です。
