AOR - The Best Of The Westcoast Spirit
Review by Srinath Janakiraman
The Best Of The Westcoast Spirit by AOR is a collection of some of the most memorable tracks from the Westcoast rock movement. The album features a variety of artists who contributed to this genre, including Toto, Chicago, and Steely Dan. The tracks are a perfect blend of soft rock, jazz, and pop, showcasing the unique sound that defined the Westcoast style.
The album opens with "Africa" by Toto, which is undoubtedly one of the most iconic tracks from the genre. The song's infectious chorus and catchy melody set the tone for the rest of the album. Other notable tracks include "If You Leave Me Now" by Chicago, "Peg" by Steely Dan, and "Rosanna" by Toto.
