JACK WAGNER – All I Need [Friday Music remastered reissue] *HQ* *0dayrox Exclusive*

320_1 /// 320_2 /// HQ 1 /// HQ 2

JACK WAGNER recorded four albums during the ’80s / ’90s, records with the ure sound from the era. Wagner was always underestimated as musician because of his General Hospital TV Show role as actor. But truth is Wagner has played the guitar and sung since his teens and used the show to launch a musical career, his true passion.
And needed to be said, he is a terrific vocalist with a smooth vocal color specially designed for this kind of elegant ’80s AOR / smooth FM rock&pop. Never heard about him? Think Kenny Loggins.
Signed by a major label, Jack Wagner recorded his first album “All I Need” (1984) with the help of heavy weights in this matter provided by the record company: songwriting contributions by David Foster, Jay Graydon, Tom Keane, Clif Magness, Glen Ballard (these last too also producing and playing) and superb session musicians such as guitar ace Michael Thompson and exquisite drummer Pat Mastelotto.
With this team you can’t fail, and indeed “All I Need” was a total success.
This is the requested, out of print Friday Music remastered reissue CD, used copies sold for over $100.

Every track on “All I Need” is a potential single, from the synth-driven “Premonition” opener to the last cut “Lady of My Heart”, a piano ballad ready for any movie soundtrack.
More pure ’80s AOR is displayed on the uptempo and fun “What You Don’t Know” (great Michael Thompson solo), the killer “Fighting The Nights” and “Sneak Attack”, the soaring “Make Me Believe It”, or the smash hit title track “All I Need”, a classic.

Elegance, smoothness, easy listening – that’al you you’ll find on JACK WAGNER’s debut album ‘All I Need’.
Highly Recommended
