Mike Shupp - October Sun (Private Mind Records) -- Letter to Annette, Right For You and eight more. It's comforting to know that melodic rock and roll is still alive and kicking in the US of A. Washington, DC guitarist/songwriter Mike Shupp is deft with the straightahead country-inflected pop-rock that the likes of Paul Westerberg, Bruce Springsteen, Steve Forbert and Neil Young are renowned for. Shupp's debut album is an appealing peek into his world and his personal perspectives on relationships (Up To Me), trends (Into It) heartbreak (Easier Now) and well, relationships (Prove Me Wrong). Throughout, Shupp's knack with heartfelt tunes and guitar dexterity provides the listener with a pleasing ride. Write to P.O. Box 2064 , Falls Church, VA 22042 USA.
