Heartbeat of Love
The album opens with a fresh new track called Forever With You Loaded with hooks and harmonic melodies, this tune gives the listener a welcome back feeling when they hear the wonderful voice of Richie Furay with a little help from his friends like Jeff Hanna from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
Timothy B. Schmidt lends a hand on My Heart Is Cryin' Tonight. One of those rich ballads that Richie is famous for, with lyrics that match the emotion of the vocal artistry of both singers "I know a love that is strong, will somehow carry on, But My Heart Is Cryin' Tonight."
Neil Young and Kenny Loggins chime in on the Buffalo Springfield/ Poco revisit of Kind Woman. After a recent tour with Linda Rondstadt, this song was truly one of the biggest crowd pleasers. This 2007 treatment has all of the qualities you would expect from this classic and more.
Another strong track, Callin' Out Your Name features Stephen Stills and Richie's daughter Jesse Furay. This is classic Furay. No matter which way you look at it, a hook-laden song, masterful harmonies and number one musicianship. This will be one of your favorite go to songs once you add this album to your collection.
The Heartbeat Of Love is Richie's first rock album in almost two decades. This is a definitive "worth waiting for" album, and it shows full circle his career in song with some of his most notable and famous friends from the past four decades. Enjoy!
