Lee Ritenour - Rit (1981) [2004, Reissue]

Posted By: BlondStyle

Date: 1 Jan 2021 20:56:23

Session ace Lee Ritenour once more employs the cream of L.A.'s studio crop to come up with a drab, utterly unimaginative slab of nondescript pop. With guest vocalists like Eric Tagg and Bill Champlin (who also contribute as composers), Ritenour and his cohorts - among them Jeff Porcaro, Harvey Mason, David Foster, Alex Acuña, and Richard Tee - craft a pristine sonic foray into early-'80s production styles without a memorable song in ten. This is especially exasperating considering that Ritenour had the audacity to cover Sly Stone's "(You Caught Me) Smilin'" and murder it. Simply lifeless and dreadful.
