DeGARMO & KEY – Street Light [Gilder Records Remastered] (2022), MP3+FLAC

Here we have more from the just released second batch of DeGARMO & KEY ’80s albums digitally remastered. Released in 1986 on Power Discs Records, ”Street Light” was the band’s seventh studio album and one of their best.

Following the previous more keyboard driven albums, ”Street Light” brings the band closer to their earlier rock roots: it was 1986 and melodic rock was the order of the day. Unlike many CCM bands at that time, the quality of their production, mix & mastering (here handled by top guy Bob Ludwig) was not far below that of their secular counterparts.
”Street Light” is quite clearly an ’80s album – as demonstrated by the record jacket, which pictures Eddie DeGarmo in one of those knee-length hot pink overcoats that, in centuries of sartorial history, have been worn exclusively by ’80s-era rock stars – but one that stand the test of time via timeless melodies and catchy choruses.

This time Dana Key’s fine electric guitar work plays a significant role on the record, like in the anthemic opener “Every Moment” which coupled with DeGarmo’s FM rardio-ready smooth vocals and the glossy production, makes this album a highly enjoyable piece from the US mid-Eighties.
