The ARTIST FORMALLY KNOWN AS VINCE "At Last" CD.   
(Blue Spark. Website)
Ok, this is a weird name for a  rock band but
it is quite normal since this album is a one-man project. Tafka Vince wrote all the songs on this self-produced/released CD and got some help from a few members of some Chicago underground bands to play the instruments. There are various influences in these 11 songs, from CHEAP TRICK to the RAMONES and even psychedelic rock but the production make them sound more like a demo than a CD. Nevertheless, most songs on here are quite enjoyable (from the punky "goin' to Hollywood" to the grungy ballad "all of my life". )I just can't enjoy the coutry influenced songs since I've always hated that musical style. To sum it up, I do appreciate more the punk pop fun songs of the album (even though, once again, they deserve a better production.) You'll also find some fun in the video for "their daughter" which is included.
