Discuss the POB & Bambu LPs right here. I noticed there weren’t too many discussions in the Dennis folder so I figured to start one here. Speak away!  |

I think POB is a really solid album. I used to listen to it in the car all the time.
Thoughts of You 10/10 - Unforgettable, totally unique track that I could never have seen coming. A true representation / recreation of a complex emotional and cognitive state into a short song. If there
You and I 9/10 - Another great track that has always had a special hold on me personally. "You open up my wallet and dust falls out..." -- this line has always said everything to me. I expect it's not just the line itself, but also Dennis's performance. How could a guy that has been a world-famous musician for 15 years sing this line convincingly? I imagine that this was always Dennis's genuine self-concept.
There's something about Dennis's leads on this whole album, even the tracks that aren't my favorites (but I still think are good or quite good)...I heard it said on one of the old forums that Dennis really had a gift of displaying his emotions through his voice. I always remembered that. I get the impression that POB shows us a kind of sweet spot in Dennis's life -- where he was still able to record and finish material, but was already pretty lost. A unique document.
