When You've Got A Dream
Editorial Reviews
October, 2001
"His new CD is a treat to listen to. Real, heartfelt music." Don Ross, Sony-Narada, Recording Artist
November, 2001
"sensitive, intelligent & wonderful musician, but I enjoy working with him anyway." Bill Dillon Guitarist, Robbie-Robertson, Peter-Gabriel, Sarah-McLachlan
Album Description
With his new debut CD release 'When You've Got A Dream', David Gillis has emerged as an artist with a sound that in some ways strikes the familiar yet still remains unique. Hints of John Lennon, Peter Gabriel, Ben Harper, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Bruce Cockburn paint the soundscape. But beneath it all lies a truly distinct and fresh perspective. It's simply deep and inspiring songwriting. The disc has eleven tracks ranging from folk, blues and acoustic rock. The songs are all bound together by a common thread of profound acoustic guitar playing and a voice reminiscent of Jackson Brown. Gillis shows his accomplished award winning guitarist side as heard in his solo instrumental cover of 'The Theme from Spiderman'. At times it sounds as though more than one guitar is playing.
When you read the roster of supporting musicians it's simple to understand how the tracks leap from the loud speakers to the soul. Bill Dillon (Sarah McLachlan, Robbie Robertson, Peter Gabriel, Daniel Lanois) weaves wonders on four of the tracks with his orchestral guitar sensibilities. Don Ross (Sony, Narada Records) makes a guest appearance with a haunting performance on Dobro slide guitar. Fergus Marsh (Bruce Cockburn) displays his mastery on the Chapman stick and electric bass while David King (Rapid Transit) lays down balanced and steady grooves on percussion. Top that off with the true harmonic genius of Rob Fekete on keyboards and you've got a world class band.

An excellent exploration of Arlen.......1999-07-20
Julie Wilson offers another masterclass performance of songs by Harold Arlen with his numerous lyricists. Arlen's name is not as well known as some of his contemporaries, but his talents as a songwriter were magnificent. Julie Wilson and William Roy mine the Arlen songbook to produce an album of sterling quality, delivering delightful duets on such gems as 'Push De Button' and 'Lydia The Tattooed Lady'. Wilson offers brilliant readings of ballads and rhythm songs, capturing the mood and flavour of each song perfectly. Her sensuous take on 'Last Night When We Were Young' is particularly compelling. Roy's piano embellishments are, as ever, full of wit, sensitivity and formidable musicianship. A stunning offering.
fascinating, multi layered performance, never boring.......1999-03-15
no matter how many time you listen to her, you'll hear something new each time. Julie Wilson is the consumate cabaret singer.

Great for home and classroom.......1999-03-21
No other composer so closely kept his fingers on the pulse of American thinking and gave the country so much of what it thought it wanted. "Yiddle on Your Fiddle" tells us more of the second-generation immigrants' desire to become Americanized than all the history and sociology books can ever do. So it is a double pleasure to announce the appearance of "Come on and Hear!: Early Songs by Irving Berlin, 1909-1915" and "Keep on Smiling: Songs by Irving Berlin, 1915-1918," two fantastic CDs or tapes on Oaktown label and released through a friendly little Connecticut company calling itself Original Cast Records. Between the two sets, you have 41 tracks of the Berlin output from "Everybody's Doing It Now" to "We're on Our Way to France." The soloist is Benjamin Sears, who with pianist Bradford Conner has something of a reputation around the Boston area. Now some of this material is duplicated by the more widely known Joan Morrison on two RCA Victor releases, possibly out of print by now; and like those discs could use another voice now and then. (Conner does join in where a duet is called for, but my point remains.) Sears is a capable if not an outstanding baritone, who does justice to these historic expressions of Americana. So not only do I recommend both of these sets for their enjoyment value, but I wish to continue to point out to Social Studies teachers how valuable sets like this would be to classes who have no concept of how people really felt (as opposed to what they merely said and did) "way back when." And I might even stick out my neck so far as to offer to come to any school (in reasonable distance of where I live) to give a sample lesson on how these sets can be used.

Real Patriotism Through Extraordinary Music.......2003-02-26
In the wake of considerable ersatz patriotism following 9/11, I have become sensitive to what I consider to be acts of true patriotism. Recording these very American songs, with a tremendous commitment to showing them in their most pristine and revealing light, is one of those, perhaps small, acts of patriotism that are profound in their ability to show the best of the United States of America. I used the word "commitment" in the above sentence because that is the underlying theme of this entire venture. Ms. Danton sings with amazing clarity of voice and tremendous enthusiasm for the material. Each of these songs is a minor masterpiece, as presented, and the whole album is captivating and deeply compelling. These songs stay with you. I find myself humming the melodies for days. They are, indeed, songs many of us grew up with or have heard for years. So there you have it: 5 stars for the material, 5 stars for the performances and 5 stars for the recording quality.

Album Description
With his new debut CD release 'When You've Got A Dream', David Gillis has emerged as an artist with a sound that in some ways strikes the familiar yet still remains unique. Hints of John Lennon, Peter Gabriel, Ben Harper, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Bruce Cockburn paint the soundscape. But beneath it all lies a truly distinct and fresh perspective. It's simply deep and inspiring songwriting.
The disc has eleven tracks ranging from folk, blues and acoustic rock. The songs are all bound together by a common thread of profound acoustic guitar playing and a voice reminiscent of Jackson Brown. Gillis shows his accomplished award winning guitarist side as heard in his solo instrumental cover of 'The Theme from Spiderman'. At times it sounds as though more than one guitar is playing.
When you read the roster of supporting musicians it's simple to understand how the tracks leap from the loud speakers to the soul. Bill Dillon (Sarah McLachlan, Robbie Robertson, Peter Gabriel, Daniel Lanois) weaves wonders on four of the tracks with his orchestral guitar sensibilities. Don Ross (Sony, Narada Records) makes a guest appearance with a haunting performance on Dobro slide guitar. Fergus Marsh (Bruce Cockburn) displays his mastery on the Chapman stick and electric bass while David King (Rapid Transit) lays down balanced and steady grooves on percussion. Top that off with the true harmonic genius of Rob Fekete on keyboards and you've got a world class band.
Customer Reviews:
WOW!! Great CD!! Incredibly talented guitarist & songwriter!!.......2005-11-01
I read some of the reviews to this CD and can't understand were these people are coming from! Are they out to sabotage this artist or do they just have poor taste? I recently purchased this CD despite the mixed reviews and I love it! I've listened to it over and over again. The songs are original and deeply written. The production is top notch. I especially love the Spiderman track, the guitar playing is absolutely amazing! I definitely recommend this CD!!

Steve Ross has such an affinity with Cole Porter that no less an authority than Michael Feinstein said he couldn't begin to approach Ross's "perfect rendition" of "Can Can." That song is only one of the 25 Porter tunes both familiar and unfamiliar collected on this 1996 album, Close. Like fellow cabaret legend Bobby Short, Ross doesn't have the most beautiful singing instrument, but he has an expert way around a lyric, and his piano accompaniments are perfect ("I Get a Kick Out of You" is only one example). If you happen to like New York cabaret, you'll happen to like Steve Ross. --David Horiuchi
Customer Reviews:
the ultimate.......2000-05-19
Steve Ross is the ultimate performer when it comes to Cole Porter's songs. He's such a gifted piano player, has a lovely voice, and his arrangements are so perfect you want to crank up the volume and belt out the tune yourself. He has such sensitivity and emotion, knows just when to change tempo or syncopate a beat. I've driven many miles to see him perform and I'd love to do it again. He's the best, and this album is his finest. Absolute perfection.
Terrific.......1999-10-23
Most of these songs are familiar, but Steve Ross' unusual capacity to clarify lyrics with his voice, his enunciation, and even his piano accompaniment combine to bring out the wit and sophistication of these songs in ways that are new and utterly delightful (not to mention delovely). Altogether enjoyable.
A superb Porter songbook.......1999-07-27
Steve Ross is without doubt one of the finest cabaret artists currently working, and this recording amply proves his talent. Steve takes loving stroll through the Porter canon, embellishing each song with his own brand of wit and sensitivity. His excellence as a pianist and knowing way with a lyric make for a superb listen. Every track is a superlative example of Steve's artistry. Not to be missed.
