Synopsis

Product Description
So Called Life, the second release from the Long Beach CA based Good Fortune Band, is an eclectic and intelligent mix of blues, funk and rock. All tracks were penned by singer/songwriter Erich Munzner who proudly boasts, ?I listen to a bunch of different stuff. I write a bunch of different stuff. Some people love every ride in the park and some just ride the roller coasters.? The press as well as fellow artists have already defined Munzner as a prolific and eclectic songwriter. This recent effort fortifies that description. The tunes range from the funky, blues-fused guitar rock of the title track, So Called Life, to the lonesome acoustic track, Mama, which also features Munzner playing the mandolin. Other tracks on the CD highlight the remarkable musicianship of the band, such as Blowin? My Mind. ?There's this section of the song where we go into this bebop kind of a feel but it has this rippin' Stevie Ray type guitar solo over the top? Erich recalls. Less Time to Live is a definite stand out track on the CD and even Munzner himself would describe it as the song closest to being a radio friendly single. Lastly, the true standout on this CD, is Munzner's rich, baritone voice. He is as convincing on the raucous blues/rock numbers as he is singing a country type ballad about growing up. The guy can flat out sing..end of story. Munzner's commanding vocals coupled with tasty guitar work, inventive song writing and incredible musicianship, is the heart and soul of this latest release from Good Fortune Band. For fans of the band, it?s a no-brainer that you need this album. In fact, music fans everywhere should probably check it out as well.
