Craig Dove Craig Dove LP/Vinyl

A hidden gem of late-’70s soft rock and AOR sophistication, Craig Dove is a quietly radiant self-titled album that lives at the crossroads of singer-songwriter soul and West Coast studio craft. Originally released in scarce numbers, Dove’s lone full-length statement has become a sought-after cult favorite — a record defined by warm analog textures, mellow grooves, and a voice that carries both vulnerability and ease. With understated arrangements, melodic hooks, and the smooth polish of peak-era album-oriented rock, Craig Dove captures a moment when soft rock, blue-eyed soul, and jazz-tinged pop converged effortlessly.This newly restored edition, licensed from the Numero Group catalog, brings the album back into circulation in faithful presentation, offering a rare chance to experience one of the era’s most overlooked treasures in full depth. For fans of private-press soul, AOR deep cuts, and timeless songwriter albums that reveal more with every listen, Craig Dove is a long-overdue return
