Todd Norcross - CD - $12.99 plus $4.00 shipping 
The new CD is a mix of original pop/rock and folk/rock songs written and performed by Mr. Norcross.
"I have been listening to Mr. Norcross' CD's for years now. I own seven of them. This is by far his best work yet." - Stephen Collins

"If Norcross doesn't hit at least some of your pleasure centers, well, forget your ears– your nerve endings might actually be dead. His wall of sound floods us with killer hooks and old school harmonies destined for summer beach radio. This is simplicity at its best, combining craft with lyrical real life stories. This is a wonderful piece of work that will stand the test of time."
- Metacritic Music

Reviews:
“..Best of Classical Pieces” is not only good, it is great!”
   - Cincinnati.com/Arts and Entertainment

“...from the pizzicato of delicate strings in “Piano Concerto” to the dynamism and sapience of “Thundersteed”, to the climactic cantata of “Waltzing with Gods”, the compositions Norcross creates never fail to connect with the numinous thoughts in all of us. “The Best of Orchestral Pieces” is a fine piece of work.”
