Product Description
CD Description
Chris Ousey s career goes from strength to strength. His first main achievement was with Polygram recording artists "Monroe" with guitarist Gary Sharpe, but Chris never made it to the album as he was snatched in the pre-production stages by John Bonham's son, Jason, for his new band of the moment, Virginia Wolf. The band notched up 250,000 album sales between two records in the form of their self-titled debut (produced by Queen's Roger Taylor) and "Push" (produced by Keith Olsen). Most will associate Chris with the band Heartland which was actually formed by Chris with Gary Sharpe and their self titled debut on A & M Records in the early nineties was produced by James "Jimbo" Barton. Since then Chris has notched up 10 releases with Heartland, and recently Best of (ESM221) is a great reminder of the work he has done over the years. Nicknamed by the press as The Man with the Golden Tonsils Chris has always been loved by the rock audience, simply because of his amazing voice and his uncanny vocal range. So, for the first time we have a solo album from the man himself, and are we all in for a treat. Produced by none other than the famous Mike Slamer, Rhyme and Reason is a superb slice of melodic hard rock that will have you singing every chorus after the first spin. Songs Like Mother of Invention (available as a Digital download on 5th October) and The Reason Why are two great examples of songs from the album, but there is not one single weak track here. Chris has a knack of writing great lyrics and with Tommy Denander writing the music then it is a match made in heaven....and just wait till you hear the collaboration of two great guitarists Mike Slamer and Tommy Denander and the combination is just pure magical!! Rhyme and Reason is a great album and highlights just how Chris has matured over the last two decades.

Vocalist like chris ousey and steve overland just seem to get better as time goes by,ousey vocal performance is superb.Add to the mix the production and guitar of Mike Slamer & Tommy Denander this is class from start to finish.With Greg Bissonette on drums & Neil Murray on base each track rocks from start to finish,only the last track slowing into ballad territory.
Chris Ousey has been in the business for a long time now and this cd proves you do get better with age!
