Great to see him doing his thing. I really would like to hear him perform a set of his early-80's work, an energetic collaboration of 2 albums with the versatile musician/producer Nigel Martinez:

People hate "get outta my dreams", but its great pop I think. About as vanilla as you can get from a black artist though LOL. Not surprising considering Robert "mutt" Lange co-wrote and produced it though. I LOVE his production on that cut.
