George Arriola releases "Thank You" a collection of 5 mellow tunes that will have you wanting more. These tracks are not only soothing in style but exciting as well. It is the mixture of soft tones and cool lyrics that allow the listener to be taken away. Lyric-wise the songs are easy to follow and hum along to. There are hints of Chicago type vocal arrangements not to mention the background tones. Everything on this release screams "Serenity", it just feels really clean and clear. Found throughout this release are different instruments, such as bongos, pianos and acoustic guitars. Vocal-wise they are done in that mellow tone as to not overpower any of the instruments. One song that really stood out in my mind, "Let's All Begin To Show", I haven't heard a tune like this in a while where you can clearly hear the bass. This was a great touch as it was hidden in the background but came out here and there. Amazing guitar licks can be found throughout as well. Overall if you are looking for an album filled with different musical elements done with soft vocals this one is for you, I had a ton of fun listening to it. Some may say that it is a little short considering it is 5 tracks, but I think it worked nicely because the material can be repeated over and over. Definitely a release to check out!
Good - The flow of the album worked out well, all instruments fit their songs as they didn't overpower the vocal arrangements.
Bad - Not a thing, this disc was a ton of fun to listen to as it was a nice collection of soft material.
