At the same time as 'Mike Tramp' (see here), Canadian 'Bryan Adams' is releasing a new album 'Shine A Light', the latest 'Get Up' dating back to 2015 (see here). For over 40 years, this is the 14th recording studio and this latest opus contains 12 songs for a short duration of 35 minutes. As he accustomed us in the past, this offering contains energetic nuggets that catch you at the first listening with effective melodic lines where you can’t help to move your head to the rhythm of the music, and this, from the first title of the album, then, with the fast 'Part Friday Night Part Sunday Morning' country-style, or 'Driving Under the Influence Of Love' and his boogie rock tempo reminiscent of 'Status Quo' or 'All Or Nothing' and his guitar riff reminiscent of 'AC / DC' or the very sixties of 'No Time From Love' or 'I Could Get Used To This' and his chorus to sing loudly. He also knows how to change atmospheres with quieter titles such as the beautiful ballads 'Talk To Me' and 'Whiskey In The Jar' or mid-tempos 'That's How Strong Our Love Is' mid-tempo where he shares the singing with 'Jennifer Lopez' and 'Do not Look Back' with its melancholic side. In short, the singer and guitarist with the hoarse voice that accompanied us for several decades returns on the eve of his 60 years in a way to the essence of a rock, catchy and authentic, and offers us a quality album, effective and very accessible : to consume without moderation...
