MrD - Wings & Wheels (OneInchPunch label


Mr D is Paul McLinden on guitar & vocals with Larry Primrose on Bass & drums.
The album has a real full Country rock sound throughout.
Track 2, “Island Girl” is exceptional. It has a real West Coast (I mean USA) flavour to it.
“Late September”, likewise has a nice Eagles sound to it.
Malcolm McMaster adds some superb Steel guitar on “Somebody,Somewhere”, whilst “Ode To Geraldine” is an instrumental guitar piece, running in at just over two minutes.
“New Day” is a bit more lively than most of the other tracks, although it’s just a bit more poppy.
The album closes with “Whenever You Get The Feeling”, another softly sung Country rock number.
It’s all original material, 100% Scottish, and well worth a listen.
Work on the writing of this album began in September’ 2006, and recorded over 20 days last December at Glasgow’s Q-10 studios, and a band has now been formed, and publicity photos already taken at Glasgow’s Grand Ole Opry.
