For Immediate Release Firefall Guitarist Debut CD Features All-Star Line-up 12/1/06 - Colorado - Rock 'n' Roll is alive and well as rock music legends convene in the Colorado Mountains to record on a hot new CD! Jock Bartley, lead guitarist, songwriter and leader of '70s U.S. rock sensations Firefall, has just completed his debut solo CD entitled Blindside. Bartley is best known for his inspired work on such classic Firefall hits as "You Are The Woman", "Just Remember I Love You", "Strange Way", "Cinderella" and "Mexico". Recorded between January and August 2006, Blindside features guest appearances by such rock luminaries as: *Richie Furay, former Poco member and Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee with the Buffalo Springfield, *Rusty Young from Poco, *John McEuen and Jimmie Fadden of The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, *Mark Andes from Spirit, Heart and Firefall, *John Magne from The Subdudes, *Brian Nevin from Big Head Todd And The Monsters, *Michael Travis of The String Cheese Incident, *Bob Harris from Warren Zevon, Frank Zappa and Axe, along with many other notable musicians and singers. Songs from Blindside effortlessly span the musical spectrum - from rock to pop to blues, the album showcases Bartley's extraordinary songwriting talents. The tender, heartfelt ballad "Veronica So Fair" not only displays Jock's vocal prowess, but could quite possibly be one of the finest love songs ever written! The well-crafted pop-rock title cut 'Blindside' is the first single. All songs on Blindside were written by the Firefall guitarist, who also produced the album. Another highlight of this exciting new CD is the positive message song "Call On Me", which was originally written in 1998 for Suicide Prevention . The song became an anthem of sorts for the cause and the national crises hotline, 1(800) SUICIDE. A portion of the proceeds from the sales and performance of "Call On Me" will be donated back to Suicide Prevention, helping to reverse the terrible national statistics. Blindside is now available on the new independent record label Winged Horses Records. It is also available on www.jockbartley.net and My Space for individual songs or entire CD download. Blindside can also soon be purchased online from CDBaby.com, iTunes and E-Bay. In support of Bartley's new album, plans for a major tour of the US and Europe are in the formative stages.

That's a surprise! Melodic Rock at its best for 2007! This compilation includes some of the best songs he has ever written and the sound is way better than the last offering in the 90s. This comes straight from the heart and it's the first cracker of the new year!


an update: the re I hear it, the more it remind sme of Chris Hillman's "Back against the wall" from 1998 or so. Sounds like Country Rock for the 21st century. "Call on me" won't leave your ears once you give it a chance... It even grows on you. Unbelievable great music!
