Just thought I would post quick review of the Duane Williams CD, best of luck with it guys:

Following the release of the 45 “Yes My Love Is Real”, which incidentally kicks this set off, comes the full CD release from Duane Williams courtesy of Dave Welding and John Anderson at Soul Junction records. The guys have been kind enough to keep me in touch with the Duane Williams material through to this point, so aside form the 45, listeners to my Starpoint Radio show will also be familiar with “I Wanna Be With You” and “I’m In Love”, two of the albums other standouts. The former is a nice mid-tempo stepper, which originally appeared on the Beverley and Duane Ariola album many moons ago, and the latter a great ballad. Of the material that’s new to me the bass heavy beater “Come With Me” stands out, but this is a pretty solid CD of soul in the traditional sense, so if that’s your bag, you’ll need this in your collection.

Cheers,
Mark R
