Kyle Vincent – Kyle Vincent 1997

Kyle Vincent's eponymous debut album is an accomplished set of mature, singer-songwriter AOR, treading the border between refined power-pop and adult contemporary.

Working with producers Gabe Veltri and Parthenon Huxley, Vincent comes up with an appealingly polished record; while it may be a bit too slick for pure pop fans, it nevertheless has enough winning hooks and melodies to qualify as a promising, endearing debut. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
