Daughtry by Daughtry (CD, Nov-2006, RCA Records USA)

Daughtry does not disappoint! Every song is delivered with passion and the strong vocal performance America came to love on American Idol. In retrospect, aren't we glad that Chris did not have to sing "Do I Make You Proud"?! This CD is well arranged and an excellent compilation to demonstrate the range of Daughtry. From the heartfelt What About Now to the driving guitar and rock-out vocal in What I Want, every song drew me in with unique appeal. I'm not at all surprised that this has been a #1 seller. The music video of It's Not Over, also hitting #1 on the charts, is not cheesy or abstract. No gimmicks with Daughtry, just an amazing blend of talent that fans can't seem to get enough of. Chris Daughtry did not win American Idol but Daughtry has done his fans proud!
