Album of the Day

“Still The One” was virtually inescapable during the latter half of 1976; in addition to radio airplay, the Top 5 single saw heavy use in fall season promos on ABC-TV. Orleans' biggest hit is the centerpiece of WAKING AND DREAMING but the Chuck Plotkin-produced collection features many other highlights, love song “If I Don't Have You,” the gentle, harmony-filled “Sails” and closer “Spring Fever” among them. Featuring soft rock rooted in R&B, the set would prove the final Orleans album from lead vocalist, guitarist and primary songwriter John Hall. And don't judge this one by its cover - WAKING AND DREAMING will fill your days and nights with beautifully tailored sounds.
