This is one fantastic album, top quality playing and production with some excellent vocals thrown in for good measure.

Wow, this album sounds awesome. I'm going to buy it on download. Great to see the inclusion of "Somebody's Been Sleeping (In My Bed)" by 100 Proof Aged in Soul co-written by General Johnson (RIP) of Chairmen of the Board and Greg Perry. One of my favourite songs of all time.

The new album from Dennis fits into the can't stop playing catagory for me its a fine recording.

 Here's a little story .....I was lucky enough to meet Dennis back in 2002 when he was doing a book signing in London for his autobiography "Guitars,Bars and Motown Superstars"(a MUST read by the way). I took along a copy of Dreams/Answers which he co produced with Mike Theodore which he kindly signed, he told me an interesting story re the photo on the cover, he said its me in the photograph  and not Kenny James, he told me Kenny was late for the photo shoot so I stood in for him.....So the guy at the back is not Kenny but Dennis... I have looked at that sleeve thousands of time and never new...great story

Richard,

The band was to meet at Tera Shirma to go on the photo shoot for the album cover. Kenny was late and it was decided Dennis would fill in for him.

Kenny finally did arrive to the studio, long after the rest of the band had left. I told him what took place. He wasn't very happy about it and complained to me that he didn't think Dennis looked like a hippie. I later related this to Mike Theodore and we had a rather good laugh over it all.
