“Seconds” is my favorite thanks to a stunning bridge while “A Long Way Home” is Who-like in ambition with the return of those A/B harmonies. “A Place For Me” features a wider pallet with Hawks-like chords, rich and sweet as Midwest wheat. Both “Reveal” and “July” are reminiscent of the Kinks, in melody and riffing. “Five Days A Week” opens up a little with a sweet bridge as the boys return again and again to the A/B harmonies as practiced by the dB’s. The Turnback accepts the challenge of writing tight power pop songs not to exceed one octave in range! Or so it seems through the first half of the album, recalling Redd Kross’ Researching the Blues.
