Album Review: Look Over Here Girl by Bobby Grayson & His Orbits
Alright, let’s talk about Look Over Here Girl, the rock album from Bobby Grayson & His Orbits. Straight outta the US and released under Jamco Enterprises, Inc., this record hits like a solid handshake—firm but not too tight, you know? It’s got that raw rock vibe with just enough grit to keep things interesting.
First up, the title track, “Look Over Here Girl.” Man, this one grabs your attention right off the bat. The guitar riff is punchy, kinda like someone tapping you on the shoulder saying, “Hey, listen up!” Bobby’s vocals have this unpolished charm that feels real, no auto-tune nonsense here. What sticks with me is how simple yet catchy it is—you don’t need fireworks when you’ve got a melody that worms its way into your brain. By the second chorus, I was humming along like an idiot in my car. No shame.
Then there’s “I’ll Follow You..” (yeah, those dots are part of the title—don’t ask me why). This track slows things down a bit, but don’t mistake slow for boring. There’s something haunting about the lyrics; they feel personal, almost like Bobby’s spilling his guts without overthinking it. The bassline really carries this one—it’s deep and steady, kind of like a heartbeat. Honestly, it made me think about loyalty and sticking by people even when life gets messy. Weird, right? But hey, that’s what good music does—it makes you feel stuff.
What I dig most about this album is how unpretentious it feels. These guys aren’t trying to reinvent rock—they’re just doing their thing, and they do it well. Sure, it ain’t perfect, but who wants perfection anyway? Sometimes imperfections are what make art memorable.
Here’s the kicker though—I couldn’t stop picturing these songs playing in some smoky dive bar back in the '70s. Like, if Quentin Tarantino ever needs background music for a scene where two characters share a meaningful glance across a pool table, this would be it. Odd thought, I know, but that’s where my mind went.
So yeah, Look Over Here Girl might not change your life, but it’ll definitely give you a few tunes worth adding to your playlist. And honestly? That’s more than enough.
