There is mixture of pop singing, piano lines of 60´s in modern garb and rock drama in the creation and expression of Darling Gregory (voc.p).

Much of ‘Coloured Life’, the new album by Gregory Darling, is so instantly memorable
it suggests that Darling is wired into some illegal song-writing machine. And when Darling
sings “I’m gonna take the ride of my life/Take my mind up to the sky” on ‘Ride Of My Life’
– the first single to be taken from the album – you know he is emoting with some kind of
authority. Back when popular music was a tangible threat to the establishment, Darling
notoriously turned down countless record deals (£1.5 million from EMI/SBK and even more
lucrative offers from A & M, RCA and Capitol Records) and ‘Ride Of My Life’ surely documents
this synopsis and yet proves something else: a pure blast of classic, euphoric popular
music is what the world’s been waiting for.
