PM – PM ’88 [Music On CD reissue] (2026) *HQ*

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

Originally released in 1988, the self-titled PM album, their debut and the first of three records, is a very easy-going and magically melodic album with FM radio feel and some Westcoast AOR vibes. Now “PM” has been reissued by our friends of Music On CD Records.
While considered a band, PM was in fact the vehicle for songwriter, vocalist & guitarist Peter Mayer solo work, a talented musician who wrote many songs for other artists. Aside from his warm voice, he’s a really good guitarist too. In the band is accompanied by bro Jim Mayer playing various instruments, and drummer / keyboardist Roger Guth. A still unknown Sheryl Crow provide backing vocals.
The single “Piece Of Paradise” peaked in 1988 at #8 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. MR. MISTER, GLASS TIGER, KENNY LOGGINS, BOULEVARD or TOTO can be taken as reliable musical references here. A fantastic smooth record, which also shines in an absolute pristine production from a time when this type of music was in full bloom.

Peter Mayer also began touring with Jimmy Buffett’s band in 1988 as lead guitarist, a position that he holds to this day. He regularly tours with his own band Peter Mayer Group too. He released a couple of more albums with PM in the Nineties.
