for those of you unfamiliar with michael stanley he is from cleveland and has been huge locally for years and years. i have no idea why he never made it nationally, but i do know he really should have.
his recorded catalog is quite extensive, and i would compare him (roughly) to springsteen, seger, stills, walsh etc.
this new album is probably not the place to start, but if you ever come across a cheap copy of "right back at ya" ( an best of comp) treat yourself.
in a perfect world his song "lover" would have been a huge hit
