As a teenager living in New York City, Roslyn recalled when Laura Nyro wrote and recorded "SAVE THE COUNTRY" during a period of great political unrest. She fet the lyric was even more relevant today as many people fight for freedom and justice.
While working on her version of "SAVE THE COUNTRY", Stephan played a chord, and at that moment the Stephen Stills song ,"FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH" also came into her head.. And it all fell into place.
Roslyn Kind breaks her own mold with this recording of "Save The Country," utilizing a wide variety of musical genres to express the urgency of the song in today's context. Beginning with a Delta Blues introduction with slide guitars, then taking it to the city streets of New York with swinging R&B shuffle beats and uptempo saxophone and violin solos, and ending up in a Gospel church with a large choir proclaiming the deeper meaning of "Save The Country", Roslyn is transforming this American classic into an urgent global call to action.
Roslyn Kind is a dynamic, multitalented entertainer who has forged a successful career in all facets of entertainment from critically acclaimed recordings to sold-out performances on Broadway and in top venues and nightclubs the world over. Roslyn is her very own special creation, a singer's singer whose star shines brightly with it's individual sparkling light. Apart from possessing a uniquely sizzling vocal style, she is warm, funny and joyous, sharing that joy with each and every one of her countless fans.
A child of the sixties, she began recording her first album on RCA the afternoon of her High School graduation. This first compilation, "Give Me You", reflected the music of her time...contemporary pop, which includes Lennon/McCartney's "Fool On The Hill", Neil Diamond's "A Modern Day Version Of Love" and Barry Mann and Cynthia Weill's "The Shape Of Things To Come".
Her follow up singles and second album, 'This Is Roslyn Kind" showcased her growth as a recording artist. Her CD "Come What May", described by The New York Times as "Splendid and Sizzling" further establishes her reputation as a virtuoso vocalist possessing impeccable phrasing, and a richness and clarity of tone and an undeniable emotional connection to her always first rate material.
What a WONDERFUL treat this is, and I have to say, I've been BLESSED that I discovered ROSLYN KIND and her BEAUTIFUL SOUL many years ago, and I'm SO HAPPY that more and more people are discovering what I've KNOWN for SOOO long.....
The ONLY thing MORE ENORMOUS than Roslyn Kind's PHENOMENAL talent is her ENORMOUS, ENORMOUS heart.... I've traveled throughout the country going to as many shows of hers that I possibly can get to, and each and every time, I am BLOWN AWAY BEYOND BELIEF! Her GORGEOUS voice obviously speaks for itself, but in addition to that, you can FEEL the LOVE, PASSION, and COMPASSION as she connects with her audience, and I have witnessed first hand (MANY, MANY times!), how much LOVE flows throughout the venue that she is performing in. She is just REMARKABLE and I CAN NOT WAIT until her next performance singing her INCREDIBLE new single, "Save the Country"; plus all of her other new gifts she has in store for us! If anyone out there can get to her shows, I cannot recommend it highly enough that you be there for an experience of a lifetime! I can honestly say that when ROSLYN KIND is on stage, and I'm in her audience, I am the HAPPIEST person on the face of the earth! :blush: THANK YOU for this wonderful interview! :blush:
