5.0 out of 5 stars Best solo album of the year! Finally in the U.S., June 11, 2003

After several years of being only availble as an import Cd, Cant stop dreaming is finally in the US market. But the wait has been worth it. This is the best solo album by Daryl Hall by far, the most cohesive album, his previous works (Three hearts, Soul Alone and Sacred Songs) have hightlights but this is the most complete work.
This is what American listeners have missed, the best singer-songwriter in history of pop music makes its best with songs like "Let me be the one", "What's in your world", and the single "Cab driver" (which is doing well in the jazz stations).
The album has everything from very romantic tunes "Hold on to Me" "Holding Out for love", to dancing tunes "Never let me go" (this guy knows how to make a dance tune, really!) the uptempo "Fools rush in" (my personal favourite in the album)and even social concern in "All by Myself" very much in the Marvyn's Gaye style.
So if you are bored with the current Adult contemporary artists (no offense, but there is lack of creativity) this is a river of refreshing sounds for your ears. Go and get it, you wont be disapointed!
If you like more about Daryl Hall, its new album with Oates "Do It For love" is called, is a perfect match with this (by the way John Oates also has its own solo album, its first Phunk Shui, very good too).

5.0 out of 5 stars Soul Music for Aging Children, September 2, 2003

Daryl Hall's latest solo album, "I Can't Stop Dreaming" has been released on the heels of the first new Hall and Oates CD in several years! This is truly an embarassment of riches. The Hall & Oates CD is perfectly wonderful, but for my money, the nod goes to this solo work. "Cab Driver" opens the set and establishes a soulful groove from which the mood doesn't stray. Hall's voice remains a marvel and there are several radio-worthy cuts here that should propel this classic artist back to the top of the charts. At a time when pop music seems perfunctory at best, the solid efforts of Daryl Hall stand head and shoulders above the mainstream tedium and show that soul music still lives!

I have always like Daryl Hall when he did his thing with John Oates. But this cd took it to another level for me. I think I was having one of the worst work days of my life and they played "Cabdriver" on the jazz station. Ever since that moment ,I had been on a constant hunt to find this cd. "Cabdriver" has to the be the HARDEST jazz song ever recorded. Me and my dad constantly fight over this cd. I think it's an excellent cd to add to any music collection. Rap, R&B, Jazz, Rock, whatever. "Can't Stop Dreaming" is in there with the best of them. I love his music! It flawlessly transcends age, race and whatever barriers that are out there.

Thanks, Daryl
Much Love
