This 1994 release by the duo of Dewey Bunnell and Gerry Buckley may sound at first like a "why bother?" but surprisingly, HOURGLASS is not only not embarrassing, it's actually quite good. On their '70s hits, Bunnell sounded uncannily like a sweeter-voiced Neil Young; the decreased vocal resemblance here probably has more to do with the ravages of Young's own vocal cords, but it gives the harmonies much more of their own character.

The glistening folk-rock of hits like "A Horse With No Name" and "Ventura Highway" is all over this disc, with Bunnell and Buckley both contributing several surprisingly full-bodied pop songs. The inclusion of a nothing-special remake of their old hit "You Can Do Magic" at the end is an ill-considered exercise in nostalgia, a trap the rest of HOURGLASS admirably avoids.
