Cliff Dawson - Cliff Dawson(1982)Boardwalk - Rare Soul

The next 4 posts are intertwined by this great singer....Cliff Dawson. Cliff hailed from Brooklyn New York.He recorded 3 solo albums...this his debut was redone under the title "Never Say I Do (If You Don't Mean It)" a year later. The only difference between the albums is both have a track thats not on the other.But included today as a Bonus track with one other. It would be 31 years before he recorded his final album. This is a Rare offering with a superb duet with Renee Diggs who fronted STARPOINT who also recorded one album that i shall be reviewing later...Prior to this album Cliff was the lead singer for a band called ...Pleasure House Of Detention... which then went on to change it’s name to ZENITH. They only had the one release for CBS thats coming up. In addition to collaborating with numerous major label artists, he was signed to Famous Music and JellyBean's Funhouse Music labels. .....Fabulous Soul!
