This second and untitled album by Boris Midney's studio group USA European Connection is actually very good despite not be played as much as his other titles. It is very refined and smooth throughout and worth checking out.

Still prefer the vocal lineup on the first album as they had more body whereas the vocals on this second album are more breathy and a little too airy for my taste. Along the lines of Masquerade's "Pinocchio" album, but with better instrumentation.

YOUR REVIEWS & COMMENTS

Second release of "USA-EUROPEAN CONNECTION". Vocal duties were handle in-house by Kevin Owens and Chequita Jackson, singers he used on many of his other productions. Musicians included: Peter Martin, Tom Miller, Francisco Centeno and Bob DePasquale's String Group. Once again the formula was the same, four tracks (as for his first Lp), "I'd Like To Get CLoser," "Do Me Good," "Join The Dance" and "There's A Way Into My Heart," peaking at #-1.
Having exhausted this concept, and far too busy churning out concept album after concept album, Midney chose not to release another under this banner. Luckily for fans both albums were re-issued in 1999 on compact disc.
