Caleb
Caleb's debut album, 2001's "Fear Of Success," was one of the first CDs
Bastard #3 reviewed for then-WTSR Music Director, Bastard #2 - and also, one
of the best. Both future Bastards assumed the record would consist of some
lame major label shit, and paid little mind to it. But, when Bastard #3
actually listened to it, he was blown away by what an amazing pop songwriter
this Caleb was. Falling somewhere between Duncan Sheik, Sting, and any other
purveyors of smooth melodic pop, this record became a fairly sizeable hit
for WTSR (specifically the two focus tracks, "Welcome" and "In Motion").
Unfortunately, the rest of the music-going public never got a real shot at
hearing this, as Universal pretty much buried it with little marketing.
Caleb became yet another major label casualty whose CD would pepper bargain
bins for years to come. Despite this, the CD still remains one of Bastard
#3's absolute favorites (placing somewhere in his Top 50 of all time - no
small feat!)
