5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I needed!!!! April 21, 2012

Man have I waited for something new from Pete Belasco! He delivers and delivers first class, something about this artist is so pure! He doesn't seem so "music industry themed", I bet all this beautiful music is made in his basement, it has to be because he is so connected to his craft and his fans! Any tour dates? I would drop $200 to check him out! I ain't doin it, 0ne, My eyes, Later and Sweeter are my favorates! I love the fact that I can't stop listening to this disc! Such a breath of fresh air, again Big Thanks Mr Belasco for blessing us with your music! I appreciate music so, so much and know that my heavenly father blesses us with the gift of music!

4.0 out of 5 stars Seriously Soulful April 10, 2012

Did you like "Deeper"? Well then you are going to love this CD. When I first heard Belasco I thought it was a Marvin Gaye that I did not know. Rather it was a white singer! Prejudiced? Well just close your eyes because your mind will see a singer of a different color. Nonetheless, Belasco may well be the most satisfying soul singer out there. Just like Deeper, every song knocks it out of the park. And you certainly get your money's worth with 14 tracks. The only reason for 4 stars is that most of the tracks are in the same groove. But if you are this good at this one thing, then why change? Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! May 18, 2012

I have yet to venture through the entire album, but after playing the first few tracks...I was already downloading the album. This sound is smooth sounding like Kem and automatically places me within a vacation state of mind. Best believe that this album will be on rotate for road trips and the times we are relaxing by the beach in south Florida.

Its about time. I been waiting for the follow-up to "Deeper" for more than 6 years. It was worth the wait. Every song is a "SLAM DUNK" Soft....Sensual.........Smooth

5.0 out of 5 stars Thanks Pete! October 20, 2012

I first heard Pete when my local smooth jazz radio station began to play "All in My Mind" off his first recording "Get It Together" around 15 years ago. I liked the track so much I found out who the artist was and purchased the CD. Well when I heard "Love Train" from that CD (as well as the other tracks) I knew this artist was something special. When "Deeper" came out, I purchased it immediately and was completely blown away. It solidified (at least in my mind) that Pete was some kind of jazzy hydrid of Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye. "Deeper" was/is so good and yet I never heard the first track from it on the radio, never heard anything about Pete in the musical press. I was worried that it might have been his swan song and I just had to have more. Pete Belasco is one of a handful of artists that I regularly check to see if they have any new recordings. I believe at one point I even sent Pete an encouraging email through his web site to let him know that he had a big fan in central Florida. Thankfully, Pete was at work on this new recording "Lights On". Thanks Pete! I'm not sure there's anyone out there doing exactly what you are doing and certainly no one doing it the way you are doing it. Therefore, you have our complete attention! Thank you for "Lights On" and keep up the good work! Another reviewer said that he would be willing to pay $200 to see Pete perform live. I think that it would be money well spent!

This is an outstanding project from one of the smoothest artists around. It's a perfect blend of sultry tones, grooves and melodies. A great project for the ultimate chill or for setting the atmosphere to get close to that someone special in your life.

I couldn't wait to get this CD because I wanted to hear what it was about. It is very soothing and a good CD to put in when your with someone special. I did think it was pretty long and some songs repeated and I thought it had started over again. I brought a copy for a friend because when they heard it they really liked it also.

5.0 out of 5 stars PURE R&B Soul! June 4, 2012

By NeoSouljah - Purifying The Mic Magazine

I was turned on to this artist by The Chocolate Teddybear on LOTL radio. He said light a candle, pour some wine, burn some incense and just experience. He was SO right!

I know some will compare him to Robin Thicke because we don't have anyone to compare to and the industry needs to "place" you. But honestly, if I was to compare him to Anyone? it would be Marvin Gaye. Lyrically he is as sensuous; never vulgar and always celebrating the beauty of a woman, love, and lovemaking. His vocals are just as smooth and seductive, and very sincere. I detect no tecnhical alterations. The compositions on here are super strong, very, very soulful. And while I am a fan of Thicke's, what I like about "Lights On" is that it is one fluid motion of Soul music as opposed to various genres. And that is great, mind you. But with this project, I don't need to make up a playlist for a special evening. I can just press play, and REPEAT. Well Done!
