To acknowledge his 30th birthday, singer-songwriter Josh Rouse recorded 1972, a musical tribute to the year he was born. The title track lyrically references everything from Carole King to David Bowie and the album largely draws from the smooth sounds of 1970s pop radio, even if you'd expect Rouse to have gone more in the direction of Neil Young or The Rolling Stones. These heavily stylized pop songs are extremely catchy and deserved a ton of radio play back in 2003. But alas, such are the times we live in that the catchy songs with substance are so overlooked.
