To be honest I'd never heard of the man before but with the release of this cd I'll never loose track of him again !

Songs like "As the world spins round" , "Dream the dream" remind me very much of rainbow. Ken does an amazing job here ! "How to love" is my favorite track on the album , a semi ballad full of melodies and again outstanding vocals by Ken Tamplin ! "Wake me (before you go)" is again a melodic rock song with that classic 80's style !! "Love and hate" is a rocking song with a very unique guitar riff... "Waiting on you" is a bit different to the rest of the album but still a very good hardrock song on "Victory" , an instrumental song , Greg shows his tallents on the 6 strings !! The man knows how to play that's for sure. I for one hope to hear more from the man in the future !
“Dream” is a solid melodic rock album that shows plenty of promise. It’s great to hear Ken Tamplin again ! Personally I would like the production a little bit better , especially the drums...
Recommend for all fans of Rainbow , Joe Lynn Turner , etc.....
