Sincerely Derivative

Newcomer Ryan Shaw love 60's Soul music. In fact his debut, This Is Ryan Shaw, is the most passionate tribute to that genre since Terence Trent D'Arby's debut. Only 3 of the 12 are original's, so Shaw has set himself up to be asked his own question: Who is Ryan Shaw? But he gives his all on each track that it doesn't sound like a tribute. Shaw's own songs are so strong that his eventual 2nd album will have to be heavier on them to ward off copycat calls. And I'm rooting for him.
