From a largely heretofore unknown quarter comes a winner of an album in a genre that doesn’t get enough appreciation. Up to now, Derrick Anderson has been best known as \u201cthe (black) guy in the Bangles.\u201d As if that weren’t enough; playing bass in one of the most consistently appealing purveyors of straight-ahead tuneful rock earns a suitable level of credibility. But with\u00a0A World of My Own<\/i>, Anderson has proven himself a power pop songwriter and arranger of uncanny talent. It’s on the uptempo ravers like \u201cPhyllis & Sharon\u201d that Anderson truly shines. As a seasoned session player, he’s a bit of a chameleon; that means that when pals the Smithereens back him on \u201cWaiting for You,\u201d the result sounds a lot like, well, the Smithereens. But fans of the style won’t mind that. And besides, Anderson brings top-notch tunes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
