    Alone Together Album - I listened to hundred of times. World in Changes, Sad and Deep as You, Look at You Look at Me, and of course Only You Know and I Know. One of my all time favorite albums. Bought LP, CD, Amazon download. On nightly playlist.

    I was blessed to have lived in the SF Bay area in the late 60's through most of the 70's. I saw Dave and his band (Mike Finnagin, yeah!!) headline or open at Winterland and various clubs nearly a dozen times. A few of those times were 2 or 3 shows over a month or two time frame. Each time the "hits" or well known tunes he would explore took on new meaning. The arrangements both musically and spiritually would change and evolve, seeking new pathways, creating new insights for the players and audience alike...
    should we expect
    any more from an
    artist/musician!?!
    Thank you Dave, your respect to the craft and the audience were and are exemplary ✌️

    Just saw Dave on Saturday night and got to meet him briefly and he signed a few things for my wife. His set was fantastic and his current band was really impressive - including Mark Stein of Vanilla Fudge. Such a wonderful evening - I highly suggest people go see Dave (and many other artists from the 60s and 70s) while you have the chance.
    Great interview Sandy!

    First Brit I've head who has pretty much lost his Brit accent. At first I thought that I had it wrong all these years and he was from the USA. Good interview !

      I remember reading he was English, but watching a concert and his brief commentary between songs, thought I must have misremembered. He definitely has a very neutral US accent, and what nice, affable, guy. Remarkably strong vocals, timeless impact on the biggest musical era. Nice interview!

      He was in his mid-20's when he moved to the U.S. 50+ years ago. He certainly could have retained his accent had he wanted to, but probably made a conscious decision to drop it altogether over time.

    My daughters bought record players for their homes and we buy all kinds of stuff. I bought a Jerry Vale album and a Sound of Music soundtrack. Ill go tomorrow and find me some Dave and i know they have Traffic but that one was a little pricey. People seriously dont know who Dave is so there might be an album available.

      Tone it down, buddy. You are incorrect. And you are obnoxious.
