From Jazziz
This master of elegant funk piano seems poised to carry the torch that Joe Sample lit long ago. He works with fatter grooves here though, programming his rack most of the time to create a shuffling retro-soul, hip-hop mix. But toney's weave of spry melodicism and dark brooding is unmistakably sample-esque. Typical of the uptempo, hi-tone approach is "How 'Bout That," with a bass-driven groove that gallops underneath a playful, skittery duel between Toney's piano and Rahmlee Davis' trumpet. On the other side of the coin is the graceful ballad "Hush," which begins with a lush synth-string intro, then eases into a moody chord progression. Although guest spots by saxophonist Gerald Albright and Kirk Whalum and guitarist Ray Parker Jr. add some spice, Toney rarely stretches beyond smooth jazz's definition of funk. But his one leap of percussive faith is a memorable one. "Get Up on It" throbs along with exotic rhythms by percussionist Bill Summers (credited with playing the "bottle" as well) and a thick wall of bass by Sekou Bunch. This tune goes through various movements as it pushes along, leaving Toney an opportunity to switch from an acoustic melody to a synth-created electric-piano run.

Disappointed,
By A Customer
This review is from: Extra Sensual Perception (Audio CD)
I was extremely excited to hear about Kevin Toney and rushed out to buy his CD, but was disappointed with it. All of the songs sound like what we have all heard a million times, and I couldn't stop myself from thinking somebody else could have done them better. Sure Mr. Toney has talent but this CD doesn't display it very well or remove him from the pack of other average musicians.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Needs something EXTRA and Him for the Beauty Pageant,
This review is from: Extra Sensual Perception (Audio CD)
When I first heard this song.. the Bass was driving me up the wall, I started to catwalk to see if I could
walk to Kevin style of Music. Yes, This work. I need to purchase the CD' sound track for the Swimsuit category Americas Perfect Teen Pageant and the Miss Black World Pageant. I love the bridge it sink down then drive back up with a rhythm to grove you while still holding its ground with funky piano finger on the Keys. You got me Kevin!!
