The Genius Behind The Strokes

Posted over 2 years ago
  • Artist:
    Albert Hammond Jr.
  • Album:
    Yours To Keep
  • Track:
    Blue Skies
For those of you who didn't know, the person truly behind the Strokes greatness (and I use that term loosely) is Albert. A seasoned musician, and soulful singer. People wouldn't know since the marketing was always all about Julian.I love this song. Shades of Lennon. Very earnest. Gives me goose bumps sometimes.

    dermahrk says I don't own any Strokes or Hammond CDs, but I have listened to sample tracks off of both and I have to agree with you that Hammond is the real deal and I would consider buying his CD. The Strokes pretty much leave me cold, so I'm tempted to think that Hammond is not really in control of their music. Thanks!

    brittanybf says Ooh most definitely goose-bump producing. How's his album on the whole?

    lositossn says I agree! I saw his true talent first when i watched The Strokes' documentary 'In Transit'. It was great and had an original score by Albert himself. It's funny because a lot of the riffs he used in scoring the film show up on his first album.
