Review by Rachel Angres
Yes, the collaborative album by David McAlmont and Bernard Butler, is an exquisite masterpiece that showcases the duo's exceptional songwriting and musicianship skills. The album, released in 1995, features ten tracks that blend soul, rock, and pop elements to create a unique and captivating sound.
From the opening track, "Yes," the listener is immediately drawn into the album's lush and vibrant soundscapes. McAlmont's soaring vocals are a perfect match for Butler's intricate guitar work, creating a dynamic interplay that is both powerful and emotional.
Tracks like "You Do" and "Different Strokes" showcase McAlmont's impressive vocal range and ability to convey raw emotion through his singing. Meanwhile, songs like "Disappointment" and "Can We Make It" demonstrate Butler's exceptional guitar skills, with intricate riffs and solos that add depth and texture to the music.
Yes is a cohesive album that flows seamlessly from one track to the next, with each song offering something unique and memorable. The album's standout track, "Yes," is a powerful anthem that captures the spirit of the entire album, with its uplifting lyrics and soaring chorus.
