From top to bottom, these recordings by David Brookings and friends are radio-ready tunes that, like “Hard Times,” are catchy as a Covid virus and instantly likeable. Brookings’ (Billy Corgan-like) vocals, in particular, are rendered with a plush, soothing flavor that transports you. In fact, all of the elements in these recordings are excellently delivered, right down to the rich, soggy snare drum. “Driving to Ojai” gives off a bit of an Americana vibe with its mandolin and strings. And the bright, uptempo, pop-rocking “Keep It Real” is a delight as its mandolin and ukelele is joined by big drum & bass tones. Brookings has a knack for small elements that make a large statement. Check ‘em out.
