Opportunity Knocks/Still a Part of Me

Power Popaholic Records

The newest single from Jim’s upcoming album Pop Top is this double A-Side. Both songs are good, and very different types of power pop. “Opportunity Knocks” is a bluesy, rolling piano romp with a lyric explained by the title. It's a lot of fun to listen to. “Still A Part Of Me” is more serious and more pop. It’s an anthemic relationship song with a rousing chorus, the song going by in a rush. These songs are a good introduction to Pop Top. If you like what you hear here, you’ll want to get the album.
