Because Carrack's side projects since the mid-'80s have all been variations on slick but soulful pop-rock, it's not a surprise that Blue Views sounds like it could have been released in 1991. That's not necessarily a bad thing, since Carrack's vocals are terrific and the sound is appealingly polished. The material is a bit too spotty to make it a triumphant comeback, but the best moments, including a version of the Eagles' \"Love Will Keep Us Alive,\" are solid adult contemporary pop. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47404981551391,"sku":"5052442005117","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/b01b1184099fe2a8fe1b5685ad004056.jpg?v=1777665126","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/blue-views-remastered","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
