The Other Side of the Road

Smokie

Golden-hued soft rock with a traveling spirit. Chris Norman's signature raspy delivery meets lush, three-part harmonies and polished 1970s analog production.

Moments Worth Listening For
The title track's opening acoustic strum that immediately establishes a weary, traveling atmosphere.
The dramatic, slightly darker shift in tone during the five-minute sprawl of London Is Burning.
The way the vocal harmonies swell and lock in during the chorus of Babe It's Up to You.
