Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Without dreamers there is no progress, without The Dreamer there is no call back to celebrate and reflect upon a time of Blues which has largely since disappeared as the new century has dawned and allowed the genre to tackle the issues that faced it as the 1980s and 90s came to an end. To take such a positive and courageous step and reinforcing what made the Blues so special to millions of fans is a privilege that must not be abused, but one that should see the artist flourish under the scrutiny that is sure to come.
