SUMMARY:Steve Forbert
DESCRIPTION:Steve Forbert is a true American treasure\, a fact underscored 
 by his 21st album\, Daylight Savings Time. Like all his albums of original
  songs\, it’s suffused with what venerated rock journalist Robert Christ
 gau discerned as his “omnivorously observant” songwriting\, marked by 
 Steve’s gift for finding the deeper meaning and magic within the spectru
 m of everyday moments\, as well as his abundant melodic and poetic enchant
 ment.\n\nAs Forbert approaches the milestone of his 70th birthday\, Daylig
 ht Savings Time contemplates and celebrates the proverbial ‘extra hour o
 f daylight’ that comes with the time change. “Yeah to chirping cricket
 s and to daylight savings time!” he sings on the album’s first single 
 “Sound Existence\,” “The best ain’t yet to come\, but you could st
 ill get by just fine.”\n\nSteve arrived in New York City from his Meridi
 an\, Mississippi hometown in 1976. He slotted seamlessly into the “new f
 olk” revival in such Manhattan clubs as Folk City\, The Bitter End\, and
  Kenny’s Castaways while taking the stage at CBGB\, ground zero of the b
 urgeoning new wave/punk movement. He also busked on the streets of Greenwi
 ch Village and in the elegant confines of Grand Central Station.\n\nHe qui
 ckly won a major label deal with Nemperor/CBS Records and released his her
 alded debut\, Alive on Arrival\, in 1978. His next album\, Jackrabbit Slim
 \, released in 1979\, brought wider renown to Forbert with its #11 pop cha
 rt hit “Romeo’s Tune.” It provided the stature for his troubadour ex
 istence\, which has kept him active ever since as “a striking performer\
 , very much worth seeing and hearing\,” according to the New York Times.
