Lush, erotic, soulful and beautiful are just a few of the words I can think of to describe this CD. Every song on this disc deserves 5+++ stars. From the energetic opener Hold My Peace to the lullabyish closing songs Baby God and Sweet Dreams 4 U IC..I have owned this CD since 96 and I still listen to it weekly. Jhelisa writes songs from her soul and it is so apparent when one listens to this scrumptious CD. I am eagerly anticipating her next release.

This review is from: Galactica Rush (Audio CD)

Jhelisa's debut album, GALACTICA RUSH, wears its acid jazz credentials proudly on its sleeve -- and why not? For the genre, it's certainly strong example to follow, blending beats with psychedelia and Jhelisa's accomplished vocal work. The title track, for instance, swirls around with layers of squealing horns and a sudden exclamation, "12 little kitties in a cardboard box!" Acid, indeed. The humorous personal manifesto of "There's Nothing Wrong" gives us Jhelisa at her most individualistically defiant, while "Hold My Peace" lends some political action to that defiance. With production from Cool Breeze, the album shows its lighter side on "Whirl Keeps Turning" or the cleverly tongue-in-cheek "Death of a Soul Diva." And I don't have to mention the now-classic "Friendly Pressure"; it speaks for itself. And the three lullaby-like tracks that close out the album show off Jhelisa's more maternal side as well.
