Michael Omartian: "Adam Again"

Released in 1976,

this is Michael Omartian's second (2nd) solo album.

It is thematic; essentially a mini rock opera.

As always, the music and the production quality

are excellent.  The band credits read like a Who's Who

of '70s session stars:

Ernie Watts

Paul Hubinon

Dean Parks

Lee Ritenour

Larry Carlton

Ed Greene

Victor Feldman

Richard Bennett

Wilton Felder

David Hungate

Scott Edwards

Michael Omartian: "White Horse"

Released in 1974,

this was Michael Omartian's first solo LP.

By that time,

he had already begun to build an amazing

career as a session artist,

and this album marks the beginning of 

what became a super-stellar career

as a producer.

Honestly,

this album changed my life.

Everything about it was mind-blowing

(at least to me, at the time).

From this point forward,

I would always be on the lookout

for Michael Omartian's name

in any album credits.

My favorite

was when I found his name among

the dozens of names listed

on the credits for the soundtrack,

"Jonathan Livingston Seagull";

but I have found his name

on many, many, many album credits.

My favorite track from this LP:

"Jeremiah"
