Sometimes
all the pieces come together to mesh as one and form something spectacular.
Such is the case with the new release from The Corrections titled The Man
They Could Have Saved. Great songs and stellar musicianship from the band
(Guillermo Izquierdo/guitar and vocals, Tim Mroz/bass, Rob Pacillo/keyboards,
Mark Ricci/guitars and Erik Hallmark/drums makes this three song EP stand
out far and above most of the current offerings. Soulful with a keen sense
of pop melody, “Should’ve Never Let This Happen” leads off the disc. “The
Best Girlfriend You Never Had” a rousing pop rocker with country undertones
features the always reliable Joelle Labert (Flatbed) on harmony vocals
with Izquierdo. Mroz’s bass playing also shines on “…Girlfriend”. The title
track “The Man They Could Have Saved” is a Bowie-esque ballad that builds
in tempo and intensity to a grand conclusion behind Izquierdo’s soaring
falsetto vocals. For more on The Corrections and their new release The
