Neal Francis - Return To Zero - Cobalt Blue Vinyl

The latest album from Neal Francis, Return To Zero, emerged from a kind of visionary fever dream. Facing countless moments of creative frustration eventually gave the album its title. “I was cutting a lot of the vocals at home,” Francis explains. “Every time I needed to start over I’d press this button that says ‘RTZ,’ which stands for Return To Zero. I was doing take after take but no matter how frustrated I got, I just told myself to remain calm and take inventory, and then begin again.” The album is a mix of timeless rock & roll and ’70s-era dance music.
