After Camel ..........

"This was Pete's first solo release following his departure from Camel - for what is on record as "musical differences". Yet, the feel and texture of "Heart to Heart" is not too far removed from his last CD with Camel - "Breathless". Yes, this CD allows Pete to bring his keyboard virtuosity to the fore, yet unlike his later synth dominated CD's, "Heart to Heart" retains a rock ensemble backing using bass, drums, guitar and sax/flute (Mel Collins). The tracks vary from shorter songs "Julia" (about his wife at the time?) to "Raining All Over The World" (about his departure from Camel?) through longer blues/jazz/rock orientated instrumentals. This is quality material from a quality songwriter/performer and should definitely appeal to Camel fans"
