1 out of 5 stars Boring.......2004-01-10

I tried this group out with this CD because I heard that they are doing good soul music but I was disappointed. Many cover songs in an Incognito-style. The girl sure has a voice but all in all I thought this was boring.

4 out of 5 stars "Trust Your Instincts" -- Love at First Listen.......2002-04-07

"Trust Your Instincts" is my first exposure to Count Basic and I loved it from first listen. Kelli Sae's voice pierces right through my soul, arousing many emotions, from sorrow to joy. This album is rich with soulful ballads; my favorite being "Who's Gonna Wipe My Teardrops Away," "Someday" and "Where Did Our Love Go." Other favorite tracks are the upbeat and funky "I Don't Wanna Wait," "Richest Woman," "One One 4" and "Living for the City." I loved this album so much that I went out and bought every other Count Basic CD I could find! I highly recommend all of the Count's work!

1 out of 5 stars HOLY COW - HOW COULD ANYTHING BE THIS BAD.......2001-07-12

Hey, Compact Disc World, how could you file this under jazz. This pathetic thing, I don't know what this is, it's some kind of thing, was painfully atrocious from the first note. I'm talking painful. Kenny G is Benny Carter next to this. This is our standard light jazz. I thought light jazz was dead. I thought people had enough of pretending jazz music. This isn't even elevator music. Drum machines, a horribly bad singer, terribly bad songs; it's unbelievable. I passed up a Herbie Mann disk for this. When I bomb, I bomb big. This is big time bad music. Duke Ellington said there was two kinds of music; good music and bad music. This is bad music. If you are depressed and looking to kill yourself, sit down for a listen of this and you will be no more. This should be the national anthem for the NRA. It makes you want to go out and buy a gun and shoot this thing. If you dont listen to me and you buy this, you are going to need an anesthetic for the pain you will be in. Where is the Acid Jazz? What was the Count thinking. I don't even see how he got through making the album. This material should have put HIM sleep during the production. Count, rethink your career. This stuff was dead 5 years ago. He must be trying to revive the dead. Please don't buy this. If you want to throw your money away, send it to me instead.

1 out of 5 stars What happened?.......2001-05-10

Something has gone horribly wrong with the Count as he continues to release cd's. Each one becomes increasingly worse and more difficult to bear than the previous.

This is absolutely horrible. Take a wanna-be Mariah Carey, or perhaps more suitable, a really bad Dee Dee Bridgewater, and back with the musical mechanics of Kenny G or the backing band of Lisa Stansfield. That will just about put you in the camp of this record. Absolutely soul-less r&b, straight out of your local dentist waiting room or elevator.

Save your money on this one. If you want to get something decent by the Count. Go for his first cd. By far that was his "crowning" acheivement.

3 out of 5 stars The Count's first effort..."Life Think it Over".......2000-11-22

Is a classic and I think Paul Legat (Basic) put all he had into that first CD. This is an occasion when a foreigner tries to repackage R&B to American listeners, and we should trust our instincts and know better. The instrumental tracks One One 4 and the title track are actually good and will grow on you since there is nothing much else here. Heavy Dose is a very tight production and Living for the City is a really subpar rendition- try to get a used copy of this if you must have it.
