John Keaton

Love - Diamond -Karma is a compilation album consisting of many of John Keaton's compositions. From Pop - Inspired Love tunes to Introspective tunes on the subject of youth and maturity (Hold On, Dreamer). The track " Funk It Up is an Instrumental that really gets down and keeps the momentum flowing. Two Pop classics are also included, " A Little Bit of Heaven " , the opening song and, " Darling, Can't You See? ". The EDM track, " I'm Dreaming About You " rounds out the collection.

The Collection, "Hope To Dream", is very much a landmark in John Keaton's song catalog. The Anthemic, "Rainbows", is a glowing chant to love and acceptance for those who defy the norms and forge their own path. "Always (The Serenade Lives ON" is also a moving testament to the power of love and resilience. The Album is basically framed by the dance tracks, Oh Boy! (Symphonic Mix) , and Oh Boy! (Epic MIx). THis ingenious song is an ear-worm with a drive and enthusiasm rarely found in pop music today. Two Tracks also take on an R&B flair and Groove - "Everybody Needs a Friend" , which features an infectious bassline, and "Keep On Movin', which harkens back to the good - old days of smooth R&B. All in all the, assemblage of songs represent a turning point in John's extensive musical career.

"Aspire To Inspire" is perhaps, Keaton's finest assemblage yet. The diversity of songs and genres plays like a kaleidoscope of ideas, thoughts, and emotions. "Cause I Need You", is a summer tune, complete with a highly contagious chorus and some great, rollicking guitar licks. The Track, " Shine On", perfectly captures the MTV era, with playful synths and an upbeat lyric. "A Part of You", featuring Cheryl Miller is a heartfelt country tune, and Ms. Miller's voice glows with a lovely, tender vibrato. "Just A World Away" is a marvelously crafted song, performed eloquently with pure attention to melody and the gospel-inspired chorus works well with the overall emotional tone. All in All, "Aspire To Inspire", is a stunning album, full of tunes that will pass the test of time with blazing colors.

From the 80's retro-inspired, Shot of Love (Kiss Me In The Rain), to the EDM track, "Angel Blue", John Keaton's 2026 collection, "Above and Beyond" represents a breakthrough in John's extensive musical career. Drawing on compositions culled from many previous decades the album is a Tour de Force of his prowess as a song stylist. An outstanding Song entitled "Fate Is Your Name", is featured, it's a song about predestination, destiny and of course, Love. With additional tracks, such as the Country flavored, " Where I Live" and the gentle, moving ballad, "All of Ou Days", Keaton raises his game considerably, in terms of composition, and vocal performance.
