California-based pop maven Jeff Larson released a new CD called Yesterday’s Dream in 2019 on his Ncompass Music label. Actually, the roots of the ten-track Yesterday’s Dream CD go way back to 2001 when Jeff and musical cohort John Blakeley released their historic Daytrips collaboration. That album features Jeff’s vocals and music and John’s music and guitar work along with Scott Matthews (drums), Jeff Pevar (bass) and other musicians. Described as a brilliant throwback to the golden era of singer-songwriters, Yesterday’s Dream features some tracks from Daytrips, that are newly redone. The whole Yesterday’s Dream CD is filled with catchy pop hooks in the spirit of Jeff’s mentor’s such as Gerry Beckley of the band America, the sound of The Eagles and other classic California bands and noted vocalists. Music fans who thrilled to John Blakeley’s 2006 Tan Mantis album with Ron Nagle, will be in for a treat with Yesterday’s Dream as John’s signature guitar sound is all over this disc and Ron Nagle also designed the cover art. Blakeley’s patented surf-twang guitar sound has rarely sounded better and Jeff Larson’s songs still stand the test of time on Yesterday’s Dream.
