JOSEPH PAGANO first came onto
ROCKWIRED's radar a few months back with the release of his EP
GRAVEYARD OF DREAMS. On that recording he boasted JOHN LENNON-styled
songwriting chops mixed with a curious vocal styling that found it's
way somewhere in between NEIL YOUNG and WAYNE COYNE of THE FLAMING
LIPS. The stand out from that EP was the live recording of the
lighter-waving ballad CANDLES HOPE AND FAITH. On his latest EP release
TIME AND COLORS CANDLES HOPE AND FAITH gets the full studio treatment
but this time it's far from the best track on the CD. PAGANO has come a
long way in the short amount of time since his last release and the
evidence can be found on the haunting title track. He even manages to
show a grittier side with two stomping roots rockers LIFE IN A BAG and
16 OTHER WAYS - a song that could find a snug a comfortable place
between JOHN HIATT and SHEL SILVERSTEIN.
