"The Ride" by Cameron Dobb is a collection of inspiring adult alternative pop/rock songs with creative arrangements, lots of layers and strong vocals. The musicianship and production are totally professional, including outstanding vocals. Each song is a new experience, keeping the CD interesting throughout. The lyrics are strong and the choruses are definite sing-alongs. Highlights are "Hurricane," which is certainly a song that defines the sound on the CD. "Bee Sting" has a beautiful guitar progression, builds to power and features a string section. "Safe" is harrowing and features some gorgeous piano work. You will thoroughly enjoy this outstanding album if you enjoy bands like Train or Ben Folds.
