80s (and sometimes ‘20s) Music Rules ~ Criminally Underrated Artists and Bands ~ Paul Manchin, A Music Review

My mantra has always been, “music is my lifeblood.” So, it’s always great fun to discover new music to keep that feeling alive. What’s even more fun is sharing these musical gems with others. Not everyone has the same taste in music, but every once in a while, a recommendation turns into a found treasure.

That said, my latest find is a track called “Gratification” composed by Paul Manchin and David Bottrill. Paul handles the vocals, while David wears many hats: track master, producer, mixer, and player of all instruments. As if that isn’t enough, David has worked with Peter Gabriel, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Rush. 

This song seduces the listener from the opening bars. The intro to “Gratification” sounds very much like a faster-paced intro to David Bowie’s “Lazarus.” That alone got my attention and kept me glued to the audio. Then, once the curious sound of Paul’s digitized voice, along with the opening lyrics kicked in, there was no going back for me.

Enough about my listening experience: time to make it your own. (Click on “Watch on YouTube.“)

“Gratification” is published by Peter Gabriel’s Real World Music in the UK. It was recorded at Mainstation Music Inc. in Canada.
