Wall Street Banker turned Rock Star Sir Ivan just released his debut CD entitled I am Peaceman this year. I have to be honest with you - I was genuinely inspired by this mans story. True to form wanting to exit the corporate grind for something much more fulfilling & spiritual. All the while delivering a message of peace & hope for all.

So is Sir Ivan a fad or for real? IS this exit more a publicity stunt than a real life changing event? Given the fact he is a self made millionaire turned artist - leads you to believe in the later. For those who love classic songs from the 60s & 70s this CD is indeed a must have. Sir Iavn takes many classic songs & puts his own personal poppy twist on them making for a very entertaining & uplifting musical experience. Go a step further there is in fact a current billboard hit Hare Krishna adds even further to the Sir Ivan mystique. Maybe Sir Ivan is really on to something here.

I give the debut release from Sir Ivan a thumbs up. Hes no doubt quirky & zany artist  but that has won praise for many past artists like Weird Al Yankovich, Michael Jackson, from Lady Gaga to Devo. Indeed hes cut from the cloth as some of these artists. Weather intended or unintended, Sir Ivan is not to be underestimated or written off. Sir Ivan is a mystery & a musical paradox. He leaves us all with messages for all mankind to benefit from. He is peaceman  he is Sir Ivan.
