DAVID READMAN / PINK CREAM 69 / VOODOO CIRCLE

DAVID READMAN – Medusa (2022)

Over the years singer / songwriter DAVID READMAN made a name by himself with great bands like Pink Cream 69, Voodoo Circle, Adagio, etc but also as collaborator / producer for countless artists. Now it’s time for a new Readman solo album entitled “Medusa“.
The album took almost two years for completion, due to the pandemic as features a plethora of top-tier musicians across the various tracks. After first listen, I’m happy to say Mr. Readman has never sounded stronger and this is some of my favorite works from him.
Readman’s previous solo album dates from many years ago, but the quality of “Medusa” definitely worth the wait and having on board some cool musicians the likes of Roland Grapow, Simone Mularoni, and Eric Ragno, among many others, only adds more credibility to the overall production and final output. The mix was done by the terrific Dennis Ward, no surprise at the quality of the product here…

BLACK EYE (David Readman) – Black Eye (2022)

Frontiers Music will release the self-titled debut of BLACK EYE, the new musical project centered around the vocal talents of David Readman (Pink Cream 69). The driving principle behind Black Eye was to craft a melodic metal album with big choruses, powerful rhythms, and huge solos that would showcase the powerful voice of Readman, an absolute world class singer.

”Human’‘ is the debut album for singer David Readman (Pink Cream 69) fronting NATURAL BORN MACHINE, a new international Melodic Hard Rock band.

Natural Born Machine offers us a refined version of bluesy hard rock that relies on strong melodies, powerful choruses and slick guitar work to fill in the blanks. David Readman’s vocals are clear and clean, and the songs straight to the point.

ALMANAC / DAVID READMAN

ALMANAC – Kingslayer (2017)

ALMANAC released a fine debut album last year but I found it a bit monotonous, now they are back with second effort “Kingslayer”, and I must say the focus (and songwriting) has been improved a lot. Now the songs are dynamic, catchy, and with very good vocal arrangements, including a stellar performance by David Readman (PINK CREAM 69, ROOM EXPERIENCE)....
