Artist - Toy Matinee
Title - Toy Matinee
Year of Release - 1990
Record Label - Rounder Records
Genre - Pop/Rock
The self titled release of songwriter/musicians Patrick Leonard and the late Kevin Gilbert is probably the best Pop record most people have never heard of.
It's a blend of witty yet intelligent music with great hooks and a very polished sound that has been compared to Steely Dan.
This is the only album to be released by the progressive-pop duo. Kevin Gilbert also released a solo album called "Thud" prior to his untimely death in 1996 and was also the lead singer for "Giraffe".
This CD is one of my favorites. Check out the Kevin Gilbert site: http://www.kevingilbert.com for some samples of his music.
