5.0 out of 5 stars
essential for any music enthusiast, April 12, 2003
This review is from: Blue (Audio CD)
This disc is very good. It's too bad that this Swiss group had two releases (only one charted), then disappeared. It was difficult trying to find the disc by group name OR album title. Most people remember the single CAPTAIN OF HER HEART. That was how I heard of them, but it took me so long to get the disc (big thanx to a friend).

Music that is timeless!!!, February 15, 2003
This review is from: Blue (Audio CD)
A hard to find album, but one that is worth all the search. The music is so sultry, subtle and truly melodious in every aspect. Always brings back memories of my high school graduation, which incidentally was played during the ball. Every time I listen to the famous hit "The Captain Of Her Heart" I dont want it to end. The music is so captivating and once in a lifetime piece of melody in its context. This is one song I simply love and will always love, as I keep it repeating on my CD drive. Wish I could hear more albums like this once more.

My First Smooth Jazz Love, May 3, 2006
More than any other artist or band, the team of Kurt Maloo and Felix Haug may be singlehandedly responsible for making me really fall in love with the "smooth jazz" format all over again in my adult years, during the Eighties when "Captain Of Her Heart" crossed over from Adult Contemporary to the top of the Pop charts. Many of my friends considered this snooze-inducing aural wallpaper, but for me it was a great way to decompress after a barrage of new wave, punk/funk, hair bands and whatever else was frenetically popular at the time.
Ever had someone nice give you a long foot massage after a hard day at work? BLUE gives you that exact same feeling, except for your ears. Well-crafted, catchy but not demanding fusion pop, with "Captain", "Rangoon Moon" and "Tomorrow" as mellow stand-outs. "Your Prayer Takes Me Off" is probably about as dance-driven as this album ever gets, but if you put it into your CD player, you're not looking for "Thriller" or "Love Is A Battlefield" to begin with. Put on your headphones, kick off your shoes and enjoy.
