 This album was released on the Hammard label in 1986 (Rememember them ) On it, the true living Oz legend that is Doug pays homage to the wonderful soul stars of the 60's & 70's & their classic songs that he so loves. Along the way he also revives a Procol Harum beauty as well as revisiting songs from his own formidable back catalogue including Dear Prudence, Without You, I'll Be Around & The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore (though I do miss another of our very best singer's, Brod Smith's backing vocals on this one)

Doug's gravelly baritone is in awesome form & though there's only one new song on here, an excellent original called Endlessly, he effortlessly stamps each & every one of these familiar, stomping classics as his own. Reviewed by Micko
