"Rock and marriage goes hand in hand for newly wed TOMMY WALES, as he proves with his new album, 'ROCK DOVE'. Wales and band, WALES ROAD kicks off the roaring five-song CD with a fierce guitar riff, sort of Metallica meets the Munsters-theme song, and rocks it hard on 'Me Without You'. The singer/songwriter/guitarist is equally at home with this flashy, metal tinged garage rock track as he is with the quieter 'You're The Girl', a heart-warming acoustic ballad written for his honey. When he sings 'you're the girl that stole my blues', you know this one's for real. Wales finds a punky edge on 'Love Shuffle' and gets heavy on 'Area Code 585', all making for his most diverse, and dare I say, solid set to date. Love works well for Wales! ..." - Michelle Picardo 'Words And Music' Free Time Magazine October 8- October 22, 2008 WORDS AND MUSIC By Michelle Picardo Free Time Magazine Dec 31 2008 "...when it comes to local CD's, it was hard to narrow down to just 10.
