Corner Spotlight: Alvin Garrett- By Myself

Today's musical landscape is filled with insipid, manufactured sounds that tend to blend into each other to the point that it is quite difficult to distinguish one artist from the other. One can view this as being a curse or a blessing. In the case of Alvin Garrett, I am going to view it as the latter. His track, By Myself, instantly caused my ears to perk up and my soul to be stirred. Accompanied by the equally talented, and underrated, Ruben Studdard, of American Idol fame, Garrett delivers a motivational anthem for those who may be at the precipice of defeat and despair due to rejection and failure. Keep moving, and "walk on" by yourself... people!!
