The first time I listened to this album I knew it was recorded from a great singer. It's sounds in a blues way and I like it so much. The front cover isn't as good as I wish but it doesn't really matter because the songs are very nice. You must listen to it to know what I mean.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Please, September 5, 2004

If you are looking for more Motown from Martha Reeves, buy one of the compilations. This is not your grandmother's Martha and the Vandellas. Ms. Reeves has matured and so has her voice. But there is someting on this CD for almost everyone. The new version of Jimmy Mack might attract a Motown lover, and it is great. However, it sounds like someone asked her to sing Jimmy Mack and she did. It is not "performed." My favorite track is "Watch your back," but others have identified "Uniform," "I Want your Company," "Running for Your Love," and "I Can't Believe It" as theirs. And then there is "God Bless the Child." I know that Simon would be honored to sit next to her behind the judging desk sharing her insights on what would make a good American Idol. After all, as a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, she is one.

4.0 out of 5 stars SOUNDS LIKE HOME, October 29, 2004

This time Martha has mixed up some down home sounds and is Servin' up some blues fresh from her soul kitchen. I truely love this set, however I must say, it's really for the fans, Those who Really love her because the songs are very personal. "Home To You" the tittle song was written for her son Eric, when he was a baby and she was on the road performing those famous one-niters. She sounds youthful on the new "Jimmy Mack", and all the true fans know that "God Bless The Child" has been a highlight in her live show for many many years. This CD was recorded in the motor city, However with the exception of "Jimmy Mack" and "I Want Your Company", it's not your traditional Motown sound. It's hot "grown folks" down in the dirt soul. This CD goes well with some good fried chicken,spankin' collards and some soul satisfying (Moma style) potato salad. Truely....Home To You. P.S.(Don't forget the cornbread!)
