Shem / Son Of Arthur

Shem von Schroeck, a multi-instrumentalist along with having incredible vocal capabilities, is known as the longtime bass player in Kenny Loggins‘ band, the bassist and vocalist for Ambrosia after David Pack left, and in 2017 as the bassist and principle backing vocalist for Toto. Shem is also a professional opera singer and is a regular tenor soloist with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, The Cleveland Orchestra, Houston Symphony, The Philly Pops, and the Jacksonville Symphony.
Around the very beginning of 1996, I had a chance to listen to his several demo tracks cassette copy fortunately, which was really excellent and could not wait for the day his solo album would be released. It took almost 6 years to have got the album "Son Of Arthur". To be honest, Shem performs more acoustic than I expected when I listened to his past demos. However, his melodies are really good and this CD is one of the highly recommended albums for you.
