    Dwayne has such a beautiful spirit to be hidden behind all that facial hair. He's a beautiful instrumentalist.

    His spirit is exactly the same with and without the facial hair. His head is bald, too. Same positive energy when he had long, beautiful dreads, too. :-)

    I had the pleasure of going to their concert last night in Durham, NC. When they performed that song, Raphael Saadiq was sure to acknowledge the fact that he was influenced/inspired by Al Green. It was an awesome concert. I am seriously considering going to see them again when they return to my area later this month. 😊
