I've always been fashionably late to every party. Thus, it's only been about a month since first I encountered the aural arts of Mr Benet... A month since my life was forever changed, and my faith in the transcendent power of music, restored. Donny, I'm bloody proud to be your fellow countryman, and I just want to say thanks for sharing... not just the tasty licks, but an infectious enthusiasm which is truly motivating. Congrats on the new album, and for bringing back the sounds that the past wasn't totally ready for, but are now finally where they always belonged. Cheers!

Excellent walkthrough. The thing that struck me while listening to Multiply for the first time was how much it reminded me of Michael Franks circa 1985 when he had guys like Marcus Miller and Will Lee leading on his uptempo stuff (like 'Read My Lips" off of Skin Dive). But you bringing up Luther Vandross and Louis Johnson made a lot of sense to me too - Never Too Much right? 😁 The album is gonna be amazing in any case, can't wait to get my paws on it. Love ya Donny!
