Description
Cross the Line is an album by the American singer and songwriter David Hollen, released on Project One Records in 1979, a division of Holy Kiss Records, manufactured and distributed by Hartsong Corporation. The album was recorded by Kurt “Bear” Storey at Hillsboro Studio in Nashville, Tennessee; with Monty Matthews producing, assisted by Scott Roley.
Light-to-mid-rocking guy who’s custom album includes assistance from Michael Albrecht, Scott Roley and Alan Moore (i.e., Albrecht, Roley & Moore). Similar mellow “adult rock” sound to some of Albrecht, Roley & Moore’s stuff, especially bright cruisin’-along tunes like the title track and a cover of AR&M’s «Eyes On The Clouds». The combination of electric piano and electric guitar often strikes up a pleasant easygoing jazz-rock groove, as on «Let It Flow», «This Could Be The Day» and «Never Be The Same». John Hardy adds some fine electric guitar soloing to several tracks. Also appearances of saxophone, violin and female backing vocals. David’s on acoustic guitar and lead vocals. Well produced without being excessively smooth. Other participants include Monty Matthews and Petra’s drummer Louis Weaver. On the Project One label (same as Frank Sterns’ On Down The Line), a division of Holy Kiss Records. [Ken Scott, The Archivist]
