Hope to see you on the 6th. Walk the Bike, Richard's first CD, has been praised by The Big Takeover, Performing Songwriter, Dirty Linen, Shredding Paper, and Cadence Magazine among others, and is available at Tower Records and www.richardbliwas.com “I swear, this is the happiest, sweetest, goofiest, most optimistic album I've heard in a long time, without -- get this -- ever being smarmy or sappy or stupid ... positively uplifting ... arrangements that are simple and perfect..."-- The Big Takeover “Bliwas transforms intricate phrases into seamless music that has flow to go along with the freedom he exhibits in his playing. He has produced an engrossing creative album ." -- Cadence Magazine “Bliwas walks the line between jazz and folkrock with confidence, producing a dialectic sound that compliments rather than conflicts. His lyrics range from profound to silly to cryptic but always with something to say ." -- Shredding Paper “If it's possible for an album to sound like a city, then Bliwas' CD Walk the Bike sounds like New York. Not the noisy traffic jam New York, but the quiet back streets where musician's assemble to create magic. “ -- Hit Session Jazzy, bluesy, uncategorizable work. Eclectic. Quite a cast of players, too! -- Brent Wilcox KEUL Jazz Director Beatles doing rock... but in his way, doing jazz. Barry Gaston KMUW Bliwas' Walk the Bike definitely sets it's own boundaries. Mike Rz WDPS-FM Walk the Bike. It's way cool..... sort of like early Steely Dan, if they were all sniffing model glue! I love this record Ray Graf -- All Things Considered
