BIG DEAL!! Australian import. Fans of Jason Falkner, Brendan Benson and Sloan ?
listen up!! Stop what you are doing ?listen to the songs below, right?!
Absolutely stunning debut from Australia and Adrian Whitehead!

Don't believe me? Take it from the best darn power pop blog on the earth then.
Here's the full run down from fabulific AbsolutePowerPopBlog, who finish the
review w/ this nugget: "Folks, step right up and meet the #1 disc of 2008.".
Here's the full review: "Usually, my practice is to listen to a CD over a couple
of weeks before putting up a review, to get a feel for it and to make sure I
initially don't overrate or underrate it. Then there's this disc, which I
received three days ago and have listened to only a couple of times, and which I
can say is easily the best new disc I've heard in many a month. Adrian Whitehead
hails from Melbourne, Australia, and he's on the incomparable Popboomerang
label, home of many great power poppers. He's been mostly a sideman, with my
only exposure to him being the track "Spector's Dead" (which appears here) on a
Popboomerang comp from a few years ago. As good as that track is, nothing
prepared me for how great this full-length is, in which Whitehead has shown his
utter mastery of 60s and 70s-influenced pop forms that all of us in the power
pop community enjoy. The Rolling Stone record guide once said that not liking
the Beatles was as perverse as not liking the sun; the same could be said of
this disc if you're a reader of this blog. While it draws its influences from
the pop greats like the Beatles and Brian Wilson, it's also reminiscent of
contemporary acts such as personal favorites like Derby and The Red Button as
well as Jason Falkner, Michael Carpenter and Ken Sharp.

The bouncy and appropriately titled "Caitlin's 60's Pop Song" gets things going,
and if your ears don't perk up within the first 30 seconds or so, you might be
better off reading Pitchfork. The 6-minute "Saving Caroline" follows, and while
my normal philosophy regarding songs is that 3-4 minutes is more than enough for
a pop song (unless it's "Hey Jude"), it never wears out its welcome as it
captures the late-period Beatles sensibility perfectly. "Radio One" is as catchy
as it gets, and its breezy midtempo quality reminds me of Carpenter; "You Are
The Sun" is piano ballad bliss that builds to a poptastic crescendo; and "Julia"
may be even better than the Beatle track of the same name. Meanwhile, the
aforementioned "Spector's Dead" doesn't have a wall of sound but provides enough
sonic detours to keep things interesting, and "Ways of Man" has a bit of a Todd
Rundgren-at-his-poppiest feel. And "Better Man" might be the coolest track on
the disc, complete with an awesome honky tonk piano break in the middle. Folks,
step right up and meet the #1 disc of 2008."

Don't miss out check this wondrous bugger out as it merits special attention,
without question. Years of multi-flavoured musical experiences combine to colour
Adrian Whitehead's unique brand of songwriting. Over the past 8 years he has
played piano with numerous Australian artists, in particular for Not Lamers,
Even. Bouncy hooky, enchanting melodies ride proudly atop simple arrangements,
letting the pop shine clearly, without hesitation. Whitehead is a bright new
talent and we should be talking about him for some years to come - It`s a grown
up sound that reels you in with its infectious melodies and delicious
arrangments. Big Time Extremely Highly Recommended!!
