SECRET SMILE – The Road Less Traveled (2003)

SECRET SMILE - The Road Less Traveled (2003) full
HERE

This 2021 we had two MULLETT albums, enjoyable recordings from these seasoned melodic rock veterans. These happen to be the last from these talented musicians, as founder and frontman TJ “Ron Jovi” Gabriele sadly recently passed away due to Covid-19.
One of you requested material from the band when they were called SECRET SMILE, releasing very good melodic, catchy, AORish albums during 2000’s, with Ted Poley collaborating and Jeff Cannata producing.
The Road Less Traveled” is a wonderful slice of ’80s style melodic rock / AOR, driven by sweet guitars, keyboard embellishments and the clean, clear voice of TJ. A mix of TED POLEY, FIREHOUSE and ADRIANGALE is the best way to picture SECRET SMILE’s sound, timeless stuff for sure.

Do you need hooks ‘n choruses? Then press play to “Into The Night”. A poppy AOR tune? “Around”. Melodic rock with class? “Tell Me Why” or “Come In From The Rain”. A well done ballad? “Just One More Time”. A classy midtempo? “Stop & Go (Follow your Heart)”.
In fact, all songs are enjoyable, feel-good ditties plenty of charm.
Highly Recommended
