CD ReviewsFor true fans only 05/15/2002 (3 out of 5 stars) "This is a reissue of Richie's 1981 release, originally on the Elektra label. It represents the beginning of Richie's foray into the pop arena. Although I am a big Richie Havens fan, I've got to say that this album doesn't suit him at all. There are a couple of gems, however. "Going Back To My Roots" is a real toe-tapper, while "She Touched My Heart" and "Here's A Song" are nice ballads. On the whole, this record is largely forgettable and really only for the completist that has to have everything Richie has done. Tracklisting: 1. Mama We're Gonna Dance 2. Every Night (Paul McCartney cover) 3. You Send Me (Sam Cooke cover) 4. We've Got Tonight (Bob Seger cover) 5. Ol' 55 (Tom Waits cover) 6. Going Back To My Roots 7. Dreams (Fleetwood Mac cover) 8. She Touched My Heart 9. Fire Down Below (Bob Seger cover) 10. Here's A Song" FINALLY! 05/15/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "So glad someone has finally seen fit to get this album out on cd. The classic track " Going Back To My Roots" has been a club hit in Europe since it came out, and almost impossible to find in print. The cover art (Richie Havens gazing at a blurry World Trade Center) is truly surreal. More re-releases from this great artist please!"
