I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Dream Job, from Jeff Rogers, and it's a soulful rocker. Opening with Her Kind Of Trouble, a super, R&B track with excellent vocals by Jeff Rogers. Kevin Holly on guitar, Clayton Ivey on keys, Justin Holder on drums and Shonna Tucker on drums are a tight unit and spectacular backing vocals by Sharon Riley, Teena Riley, Jean Lawrence - Scotland, Michelle Francis, Renee Rowe and Patricia Lewis. Soulful. title track, Dream Job, is another prime showcase for Rogers on vocal and Wurlitzer, backed by Holly, Tucker, Holder and Ivey and the excellent choir. Bluesy ballad, Wish You Wouldn't Go features some real nice guitar work by Holly and terrific lead vocal by Rogers with warm backing and horn support by Ed Lister on trumpet, Petr Cancura on tenor sax, and Mark Ferguson on trombone. Very nice. Dead of Night has the signature of a radio hit with a bobbing melody, strong melody, Rogers pure vocals and the strong horn punch of Lister, Cancura and Ferguson. Wrapping the release is Deep Cold Water, another solid ballad featuring Rogers and his Wurlitzer backed by, Tucker, Holder, Ivey and the potent vocals of the choir. This is a strong release and one that you should check out.
