Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars VERY NICE CD .......2006-01-23

This is a very good cd. Smooth and jazzy and very sophisticated.
It's sad that it did not get a lot of promotion.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth as melted butter..........2005-07-12

Nice flow. Nice collection of mostly unknowns and the under promoted. You will appreciate the continuity of this compilation, it's smooth and relaxing with a little spice tossed in the mix. The harmony on "Friendly Pressure" by Maysa, is simply outstanding!

There are some other excellent cuts on here by Carmen Rodgers, the UK duo Kloud 9, Nadir and Karen Bernod..pretty much the whole CD...lol!

If you want a nice mix of neo/nu soul from fresh, uncorrupted, non-flashy, purely vocal artists...then this Cd belongs in your collection. You won't be disappointed. It plays well while you're alone and also for the crowd (BBq's, picnics, card games and parties). I'm always asked by friends, family and guests.,who's singing and where did I get this fantastic collection of songs.

5 out of 5 stars Silky Smooth and soulful.......2004-10-08

What a delight to hear such excellent material from such unknown artists. While I've enjoyed Maysa, Incognito's smoking vocalist who has released two gems of her own, hearing the likes of Kloud 9, Karen Bernod, Laurnea and Carmen Jones was an unexpected pleasure. Every cut is great and each artist has his/her own soulful interpretation and style.
