Collier, Gerald

How Can There Be Another Day?

This former frontman for Best Kissers in the World takes his own material and blends it in with some thoughtfully selective covers for a very interesting, appealing album. The realization that its basically b-sides and rarities is surprising considering how well theyre executed; and cohesive, one cant understate how cohesive the album sounds. Whether its the heartfelt and sincere "One Clear Shot" or the soulful, powerful delivery on the Stones gem "Jigsaw Puzzle", Collier seems quite confident on each song. It shows, particularly on the alt. country reworking of David Bowies "Sorrow". At other times, his own material shines, such as the tender, singer-songwriter vibe felt during "Dont Discard Me". The only tune which doesnt quite gel as well is Elton Johns "Rocket Man", which goes down an Americana road. What is more powerful and perhaps the highlight is the stunning "Night Comes In" which stretches out for six wonderful minutes. The slower, honky-tonkin "Sometimes She Forgets", penned by Steve Earle, is also golden.
