Recorded at Tyrell Studios, Los Angeles, California.
First of all, there's the fact that he's a television heartthrob (does 90210 ring a bell?). Second of all, he's an accomplished singer/songwriter (does the smash hit "How Do You Talk To An Angel" ring a bell?). And lastly, he's got some of the coolest sideburns in show business (do James Dean, Elvis Presley, or Walters' own TV co-stars ring a bell?). With all these bells going off, its no surprise to find Jamie Walters' self-titled debut quite an agreeable effort.
JAMIE WALTERS is filled with the kind of pop-rock ditties that would set any teenage girl's heart aflutter. Yet the songs are substantial enough to win over a big sister, and accessible enough to draw in a parent or two. In addition, a number of Walters' musical decisions--most notably, his cover of cool guy Graham Parker's "Release Me" and the choice of Dr. John for eerie background vocals--demonstrate that he has far more nerve than most TV stars that enter a recording studio.
Jamie Walters is poised to be a big pop star, and as he displays on the emotional "Hold On," he has the soul to pull it off.
