Hello pals:
I have the chance to get “The Lonely Boys” cd. I’m not a big Gessle fan (as a solo artist). Can you tell me what kind of music is that? Does it worth?
I see that cd is very hard to find nowadays...
Thank you very much!!!

If you’re not a fan of gessle solo, then probably not.
Very short, catchy lil’ songs... good fun, but not essential listening.
Tracks 1-3 and 11 are all particularly worth a listen.

Oh now I love it.... always have, very 60’s kind of music, again Nils voice can be a bit of a pain in the arse... but the songs, tunes and lyrics are good! :) I recommend it! :)

I guess it depends on your taste in music. If you like music from the 60’s you’ll love the Lonely Boys cd. Simple as that.
Have a listen to Gessle tracks like I wanna be you boyfriend, Blue Umbrella, etc. Its very similiar in style. Half of the cd was written and performed by Gessle, the other half by Nils. No guessing that Gessle’s tracks are inspired by the Beatles and Nils’s by The Stones. So its a mix of both “worlds”.
I love it!
:o)

Well, I’ll be entirely honest that this album ain’t one of my favs!! There’s one or two memorable tracks but Nils’ voice does get soooo anoying after a while!!
The album got a very 60’s/70’s feel to it... almost Beatles like; not my type of music at all! There’s a reason why that style went outa fashion!!
