Peter Stein's MERCY'S DOOR is definitely DYLAN inspired and presents a debut rock blues CD which is an 11-track journey through the musical realms of 60's style rock and blues, underscored by some hard edged lyrics, such as: "Pick up the morning papers what do I see? 1 million trees being cut down every day, turn over the page see a little child bleed, is this the result of all our technology, over and over I see it on tv white cop beating a black man in the country of the free - last night 3 children and they was only 12 were found face down with needles in their arms - GOTTHEIR LIVES IN OUR HANDS GOT THEIR LIVES IN OUR HANDS" TO THE SPIRITUAL YEARNING OF turn on your light: "It seems Ive been waiting for a million years climbing on the ladder of my own tears please don't close the door to my own heart..." MERCY'S DOOR mixes elements of folk, blues, rock, pop, Indian raga rhythyms, and combines instrumentation including guitars, tablas, keyboards (wurlitzers, BIG leslie cabinets) played by John Gauci from Sydney band THE INFIDELS, drums by Nick Gaffney. Also helped out by Joel (his son) with scintillating electric guitar licks and his daughter Juanita with her beautiful vocal harmonies. Stein has delivered a lyrically hard edged and at the same time tuneful and engaging CD that is likely to be the most intriguingly original and entertaining collection you have heard in some time.
