The DiCola Sound — distilled into one album. In-Vince-ible! is Vince DiCola's career-spanning second solo album: 18 tracks, two worlds — an instrumental half that showcases his legendary keyboard work, and a vocal half featuring some of the finest voices in rock. Originally released as a convention exclusive at BotCon 2001 on Damn Swell Garage Records.
The album opens with the piece that made him immortal: Training Montage from Rocky IV. And it holds a treasure for Transformers fans — in Vince's own words: "In 1986, I wrote the music for a movie called Transformers The Movie. I decided against including any music from the actual film on this CD, opting instead to include the piece 'Legacy,' which I did as an audition for that project. I feel it is a fitting representation of the musical style I wrote in for that movie."
"There is nothing on this collection that approaches mediocrity from any direction. It's all excellent — one of the most truly substantive discs you're likely to hear." — Midwest Beat Magazine
