Firmly
believing that each of his recordings should be a musical
reflection of the ebbing and flowing of his life, Dave celebrated
the return from a four year stint living in Northern California
to his hometown roots in Los Angeles with the jubilant and
life affirming excitement of his fifth Capitol release, The
Dance. Aside from reuniting him with some of the producers
who worked on his debut ten years earlier - Jeff Lorber,
Carl Sturken, Evan Rogers and his brother Jeff - The Dance is
a true testament to the art of collaboration. The album remains
a testimony to Dave’s enduring philosophy; "The loneliest
thing in the world is creating music by myself in a room." With The
Dance, he surrounds himself with some of pop, R&B, gospel
and smooth jazz's greatest performers, who also happen to
be personal heroes, and the result is a compelling and innovative
work that remains one of Dave’s best recordings.
