Kenny Herbert | Forever & Beyond
“And there was love, love, love, love/Anyone could see that there was love/Love all over me,”sang Danny Wilson in their song ‘The Second Summer of Love,’ and truer words have never been spoken, for love, love, love, love is what there is, what lives within us, what shines above and around us, what makes us whole.
Veteran musician and songwriter Kenny Herbert, with pal Pilot’s David Paton playing and producing, is all about love on his fabulous new album, Forever and Beyond.
These 14 romantic songs, inspired by Caroline, the love of Kenny’s life, are tremendously affecting, beautifully drawn snapshots of a happy existence. Throughout, Kenny’s emotional vocals shine.
From the 1930s-styled shuffle of ‘My All Time Love,’ which glistens with a beautifully-played, spare and jazzy guitar solo, and the 1950s vibe of ‘My Favourite Everything,’ which features gorgeous background vocal harmonies, to the lovely mid-tempo ballad ‘This Lovin’ Feelin” and the upbeat, hit-worthy, toe-tapping ode to the effect that the Beatles have had on us all,’It’s All Good,’ this is a spectacular, lovingly realized collection-a fine assemblage that will do no less than charm listeners worldwide.
Produced by David Paton, Forever and Beyond is the romantic, melodic pop music album to beat this year. We’re playing all 14 songs in rotation: ‘Forever and Beyond (Our Wedding Song),’ ‘It’s a Wonderful Life,’ ‘Queensferry Girl,’ ‘You,’ ‘This Lovin’ Feelin’,’ ‘It’s All Good,’ ‘Waving to Trains,’ ‘Caroline,’ ‘My Favourite Everything,’ ‘My All Time Love,’ ‘Falling,’ ‘Nobody But You,’ ‘Paradise Falls,’ and ‘Love Very Much (Live Demo).’ Love, love, love, love this album.”
