Touché they say and the finger gets pointed directly at a man with a virtual goldmine of musical hats.

Doobie Whitehorn is fondly remembered as the bass guitarist and songwriter in 80’s band Counterfeit who’s 1987 debut single “Who’s Talking” charted at #13 nationally in it’s first week of release.
 

Since then Doobie has played on many recordings and soundtracks as well as touring consistently with a bevy of acts. Finally the opportunity presented itself for Doobie to record his first ever solo album. Inspired for years by Mike Oldfields “Tubular Bells” he decided to play everything himself and not go down the track of using sequenced backing so a collection of instruments where borrowed from friends and music stores and the process began.

The result of this is the album “Touché”.

Ten songs all written by Doobie and with him playing all guitars, bass, mandolins, drums, percussion, piano, keyboards and piano accordion as well as all vocals. Now that surely is either a true solo project or an act of madness caused by way too much loud rock’n’roll. 

 These are some of the reasons "Touché" sounds unique, it's retro but new, a little theatrical, over produced but loose.  Put simply, it rocks differently to anyone else around today. So enjoy every facet of this album for what it is - independent, personal, from a man with rock’n’roll firmly flowing through every vein in his body.  This album should be in everyone's CD collection.
