Over the years I have been forunate enough to interview nearly all the country acts in Nashville and most all the Hollywood Stars in L.A. In that time I have seen and heard the best. I must say, none better than Royal Wade Kimes. I have heard his records, and have seen and heard him live, both are impressive. No one handles a stage and mic better, and no one, and I mean no one can handle a lyric to a song better, His natural God given voice emits emotion with every note. It's like he makes love to a song, and the crowd is drawn in.  It is important as a recording artist to be belieable when singing a song or it is a lost effort, not to mention you loose the fan who hears it. Kimes voice is so full of passion and honesty, he makes you feel like he is singing to no one but you...and maybe he is. What I hear in Crossing The Roads is totally vintage Royal Wade Kimes...but there is something else, something I have no way of explaining, and that is the ease in which Royal Wade brings the song alive. The last man I saw do it with such ease was the late Dean Martin, who was a crooner, and most on music row consider Royal Wade to be the same. There is one giant difference that seperates Kimes from all the main streamers and even Dean Martin of old...and that is the passion he puts behind each utter of a sound, each lyric he brings to life. I hope the world gets to hear this gift God has given us here in America, because Royal Wade Kimes can make a rainy day feel like pure sunshine. --Puttin' On Attractions Agency
