Very few groups achieved the level of elegance,taste,and power that these legends exhibited on their 1985 record.There is a sense of freshness and sheer beauty in the voice of J.T.Taylor,weonderfully showcased by by the funky and,sometimes,jazzy orchestrations.Every track on this album means business,setting a standard for the genre.

This review is from: Emergency (Audio CD)

This CD can satisfy hip-hoppers, disco bunnies, soul freaks, and even some easy listening fans and rock n rollers like myself. These seven songs have a driving beat, funky rhythms, some good lyrics, and loads of energy. Its just so Fresh man. My only issue is that there are just seven tracks here. Why couldn't the guys add on another track or two. Allright the last song goes on a little too long but if you are dancing up a storm are you really going to notice? Don't be Misled, pick this one up.

This is by far one of the best Kool and the Gang albums. It includes four Top 20 hits(Fresh, Misled, Cherish,and Emergency)that will always be remembered. JT Taylor was truly the voice of the band that was able to take it to the next step. "Fresh" is one of those upbeat jams that you will get you hooked from the very beginning. "Cherish" and "Bad Woman" are timeless slow jams and "Misled" is a catchy Rock/RnB dance groove. I highly recommend this album to all the fans of the best music era.
