MISC NOTES: Twenty-four-year-old Bryan Smith moved west to Seattle from his eastern Washington home of Moses Lake. Since that time Bryan, an erstwhile songwriter, has been developing  catalog of over forty original tunes. None, however, had ever been captured on tape until last year when Smith teamed up with John Keski, a partnership that soon led to the recording of "Love Is The Answer." The project, explains Brian, began strictly as a songwriter demo, but developed so well it was decided to move toward vinyl, a step which was taken last fall and now finds "Love Is The Answer" and "Perfect Lady" on the market. Commenting on the recordings, Mr. Smith singles out "Love Is The Answer" as a mid tempo shuffle number with a Vegas showtime feel."  A big production number, the tune carries a universal lyrical message. As for "Perfect Lady", Bryan says the song is a romantic love ballad reflecting on a complimentary man - woman relationship. Both songs, continues Smith, are designed to further his career as a performer. [NORTHWEST DISC-COVERIES & SOUND REPORT Volume 6 #8 October, 1981.]
