Though not in a class with fellow
British R&B/
dance divas
Lisa Stansfield or
Caron Wheeler,
Cathy Dennis proved herself to be a welcome addition to Britain's '90s
R&B scene with
Move to This -- a decent, though not remarkable, effort released when she was riding high on her hit with
dance outfit
D-Mob,
"C'Mon and Get My Love," and her single
"Just Another Dream" (both of which are among the CD's high points). The girlish-sounding
Dennis doesn't have a great range, but she does have heart -- and is indeed warm and convincing on such sleek and infectious
dance-floor fare as
"Got to Get Your Love," "Taste My Love," and
"Everybody Move" (which was produced by
Nile Rodgers of
Chic fame).
Dennis is at her worst when moving from
R&B/
dance music to bloodless
adult contemporary-oriented
pop, like the
ballads "Too Many Walls," and
"My Beating Heart." Amazingly, the latter was also produced by
Rodgers -- who has produced gems for everyone from
David Bowie to
Madonna, but wastes his considerable talents on
"My Beating Heart." Nonetheless,
Move to This has more strengths than weaknesses, and reminds us that England is definitely a country to pay attention to when it comes to
dance music.
