Well he’s back with a new single and album. It’s not very often that a parody is more famous than the actual person that it is based on, but in Craig’s case Bo Selector really did take over. But never the less he and “our Kes” are back with more soulful pop sounds.

This song is very typical of his sound with everything being simple and melodic. The sound is very crisp and very well produced. All the instruments and frequencies are accounted for and make this a very full sounding recording.

The song itself is simple with the lyrical content being based around, you guessed it, a female and a relationship. It was this topic and sound that gave him the strong recognition and following that he found many years ago. If his fans haven’t grown out of him then I’m sure they will welcome this latest release.

Officially yours has a very summery sound and I’m sure will be played repeatedly on radio throughout our summer months (or what we call summer). It’s also has a touch more class to it than the standard pop tracks that the teenie boppers listen to. But on the other hand the market has changed considerably since his last success and maybe people don’t want to hear this anymore. The current guitar band, indie, rock and electro releases might just push this one out of the limelight.

Overall this is a good solid release from Craig and if it gets enough publicity, should sell pretty well.
