Doug Taylor of The Coast Magazine

"Frank Dalton writes songs about people and events that strike him, in the troubadours tradition. Video Lottery machines, the execution of Karla Faye Tucker and (ack!) the death of Princess Diana all get the Dalton treatment.

The Disc is meant as a Demo for singers and publishers, and the quality of performances varies. Eight are delivered by Don Ficzere, a well-known busker in St. John's. The Paul Bernardo murders are movingly noted in "What Happens in Heaven?" sung by Ray Power with an empathy worthy of Red Sovine. The most polished recording is Kevin Evan's (of Evans and Doherty) rendition of "Lady of the Lakes", a tribute to the first woman in Canada to become a licensed marine pilot.

Mr. Dalton is a cook by trade, a transplanted Newfoundlander looking for a singing collaborator. Half of these tales deserve to be re-recorded and heard on Canadian country radio and there are a couple that should be buried. One of those is about a princess. I hope the good'uns make it to your ears."

John Gavin of Atlantic Seabreeze

Hi Frank! I want you to know I received the CD with your 18 songs. Marvelous work - I can't believe how gifted you are with your great song writing. #'s 9, 10, 11 & 17 seem to be my favorites. Lady of the Lakes sung by Kevin Evans is outstanding.

-John Gavin (music promoter), Atlantic Seabreeze - Toronto

"Frank Dalton, songwriter from Newfoundland, has may of his amazing written songs available to artists for recording. Frank, a cook by trade on the river boats, has many written songs available for recording. He writes about people and events that are really true happenings in world events, such as What Happens In Heaven (Paul Bernardo Murders), Lady of The Lakes (first lady marine pilot), Lady Diana, Maurice The Rocket Richard and many, many more."

"Frank is looking for a singer collaborator in which he wants to get his tales out to the audience. He has an 18 song CD recording, available for artists to listen to his songs, and maybe one or two of the songs are suited for the right artist."
