Reviews: Rolling Stone: “A while back, who could have predicted that a musician from Williamsburg, Virginia, would sit at his piano and coax jazz, rock, country and gospel into a vibrant, instantly recognizable sound that would inhabit the lives of millions of people? That’s what Bruce Hornsby and the Range did with The Way It Is, in 1986, and the even more fluent and assured Scenes From the Southside, in 1988. Mirroring the rural region that inspired his music’s melodic expanse, Hornsby’s sound emerged so natural in its know-how that yuppies and punks alike mistook it for mere elegance.”
